Yeah, I'm working on that. Not getting Windows to respect browser
choice; that's asking way too much! ;-) I'm going to modify the
message page so that it knows it's being called from the task pane, and
will feature an easy way to return to the search page. Once that's
done, the page links will open up in the task pane.

Oops! Sorry about that. About half of my time developing this was
getting the browser display to resize with the task pane, and those
calls were debugging I put in to let me know when the Resize() method
was being called. They'll be gone in the next version.
