I've been curious - What determines how the page in question is displayed? I had assumed that the control uses the same engine as the version of IE installed on your system, but that is inconsistent with my experience. A specific static XML file using XSL shows one way when I open it in IE9, and slightly differently when I open it with the WebBrowser control.

Here's what it looks like in IE9 (And how I want it)

Here's how it looks in the WebBrowser control.

I am not exactly sure how it is displayed but I do know for a fact that all the cookies and the cache of the WebBrowser control is stored in your IE so I am fairly sure it is very similar. It may look different because if it had to render all the components in IE, it would take a while and may make the application slow and laggy. This is just an opinionated post BTW ;)
