Is there any way of starting IE from a command prompt, with no toolbars or status bars? By default, I want all my toolbars to exist, but with one page I don't want them visible. I'd like to set up a shortcut that referances the page, with switches to hide the toolbars. Do these switches exist?

Yes. You can open any site that way. Press alt +f4 to close the window.

Create a new Shortcut and enter this as the command line to open msn.com in Kiosk Mode.

"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE" -k www.msn.com

Perfect...thanks

Wasn't familiar with the term "Kiosk" :-)

Any way to have a button that will take it off of kiosk mode then, to minimize it?

If you use Windows+D keyboard command that will minimize all Windows.
