I would try the following:
1. Use IE domain/URL to distinguish between programs and the Internet
and track the program and/or regular website status using a global
variable
2. Tie your code to the scripts as usual, although you'll need to read
the global var mentioned above to determine behavior
3. You may consider using the SwitchToScriptFile function to load
JSS/JSB files for each program -- each of these JSS files should have
a "Use" statement at the top that uses the shipping IE JSB file
If you use the SwitchToScriptFile rather than the
SwitchToConfiguration file, you should be able to continue using the
IE keystrokes. If you switch to another configuration, you'll probably
lose those keystroke mappings. This is why I recommend using the
SwitchToScriptFile instead.
Items #1 and #2 above I have done frequently and recently. Item #3 has
been a while, so there may be a more elegant solution.
