If you want an interactive-automated instance of IE add a (COM) reference to Microsoft Internet Controls ;

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {
    var IE = new SHDocVw.InternetExplorer();
    IE.NavigateComplete2 += new SHDocVw.DWebBrowserEvents2_NavigateComplete2EventHandler(OnNavigateComplete2);
    object URL = "http://www.stackoverflow.com";
    IE.Visible = true;
    IE.Navigate2(ref URL);
}
public void OnNavigateComplete2(object pDisp, ref object url) {
    var IE = (SHDocVw.InternetExplorer)pDisp;
    MessageBox.Show(IE.Document.Title);
}

InternetExplorer ie= new InternetExplorer();

ie.Visible = true;
Thread.Sleep(5000);//wait until page loads
