Actually, this is not really a Python question, nor a Pythonwin
question.  It's a question of how to use the InternetExplorer COM
object.  There is pretty good documentation for this (such as
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms970456.aspx), although most of
the documentation is for C++ and VB.  The challenge, really, is figuring
out how to map the C++ calls into Python.  After you read up on those
objects, that's where we on this list can be of use.  Show us what
you've tried, tell us what doesn't work, and we can offer suggestions.
