Maffyx's WoW Info Finder

[The Maffyx]

Hello all, I recently thought of an idea that would make searching for information dealing with WoW much easier. I created a program in VB.net and it takes all the major search engines that pertain to WoW and sticks them together. This program takes anything you want to search, and applies it to each engine. Each engine has it's own tab with its own web browser.

Pre-Warnings:
These are some warnings that I may say. I do not recommend this program if you have a very slow computer, or if you have a slow internet connection. This program can be a tad laggy when first loading up, searching for something, or clearing all the pages. This program probably only works on windows computers. I also believe the .net framework is needed. Also your firewall may possibly give you a lot of windows or pop ups when this is first started, this is due to the multiple connections this program is trying to make and the firewall needs to make the exceptions to each one.

In order for the bookmarks to work this must be placed on your C drive.


Features:
System tray icon, can be used to show or close the program (helps efficiency instead of starting/closing program all the time)

Multiple tabs, keeps them all in order instead of having multiple forms floating around.

Tabs are flexible and follow the form, they will expand if the maximize button is pressed.

The ability to bookmark a page and look at it later.

The ability to have the program start when windows starts.**

Status bar that shows link you are hovering over, and progress bar.

Browsers stretch and fit the form so it does not look distorted.

Here are some screenshots of the program:




As you can see there are multiple buttons, and most of the buttons are self explanatory.

You can download this program here:

**Auto start on windows start up.**
This is important information needed to make sure this works properly, after extracting this program to somewhere, right click and copy it, then go to the C:\ directory and paste it there. This will ensure it will start when windows starts, if you have this option checked.

And here is a virus scan for those who need it:
