Samy, Thanks for those ideas. In my case there seems to be a discrepancy between the way the webbrowser control works versus loading a page directly in the IE window. I believe the problem is related to XP SP2 and the Internet Explorer Local Machine Zone Lockdown (see http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/winxppro/maintain/sp2brow s.mspx).
I have tried various tricks like using the "Mark of the Web" (<!-- saved from url=(0013)about:internet -->), inline script that references external javascript funtions that build the embed tag, all with no success. The webbrowser control is supposed to be a wrapper on IE so my guess is that something in my .net security settings is not right. I have granted full trust to my .net app so I don't know what else I could do.
