Internet Explorer FAQ

IE7 comes with some new command-line parameters and has lost a few. Here's a short overview over the ones I know of:

• none: OpenHomePage as default action
• -new (new process, default anyway)
• -k (kiosk mode)
• -nohome (nohome in tab, navigation cut off)
• -extoff (with Add-Ons shut off)
• -restart (?)
• -brokerredirect (?)
• -embedding (no window)
• -url "item" does a search for "item" with the default search provider
• "URL" opens URL
• "about:blank" - alternative to -nohome with better behavior

• -slf
• -channelband

Just found a somewhat longer explanation in PeteL's Blog.
