Hello,

I wan to create a Browser Toolbar/ Extension / Plugin for Chrome/ Firefox/ Explorer. I want to place a toolbar on the default browser of the user. Basically when the user install my software(written in C#/Vb.net) i want a toolbar to get installed on the browser. This browser will further have some useful add-ons. Please let me know is it possible to code a toolbar application in C#/ VB.net, if yes then how.

Is it possible to code toolbar for each browser separately and then merge it with some code, on installation based on default browser the toolbar will gets installed on the browser.

As far i have researched i have found IE version only, i want toolbar for all 3 browsers. I hope its feasible.

Regards

No it is not.
Every browser has a different approach to how extensions should be (even Chrome supports FF style extensions...).
The most you can do is to merge all the different extensions into a single installer, that way your toolbar will be in all supported browsers including the default one...
