FIX: The IESample browser does not support the VK_BROWSER_* virtual keys in Windows Embedded CE 6.0 R3

You add the following VK_BROWSER_* virtual keys to the IESample browser resource file:

• VK_BROWSER_BACK, ID_GO_BACK, VIRTKEY, NOINVERT
• VK_BROWSER_FORWARD, ID_GO_FORWARD, VIRTKEY, NOINVERT
• VK_BROWSER_REFRESH, ID_VIEW_REFRESH, VIRTKEY, NOINVERT
• VK_BROWSER_STOP, ID_VIEW_STOP, VIRTKEY, NOINVERT
• VK_BROWSER_SEARCH, ID_GO_SEARCH, VIRTKEY, NOINVERT
• VK_BROWSER_HOME, ID_GO_HOME, VIRTKEY, NOINVERT

When you open the IESample browser and try to run the command, the browser does not respond as expected.

This problem occurs because the IESample browser does not support the VK_BROWSER_* virtual keys in Windows Embedded CE 6.0 R3.
