How can I find out if Netscape is running or not? And if it is running, how can I 
get the current URL address that is displaying? The same with IE.

Answer:

Here's an example which gets you both the URL and the title of the page into one 
string. For explorer replace 'Netscape' with 'IExplorer':


1   uses
2     DdeMan;
3   
4   procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
5   var
6     DDE: TDdeClientConv;
7   begin
8     DDE := TDdeClientConv.Create(self);
9     if DDE.SetLink('Netscape', 'WWW_GetWindowInfo') then
10      Edit1.Text := DDE.RequestData('0xFFFFFFFF, sURL, sTitle')
11    else
12      ShowMessage('Netscape is not running');
13    DDE.Free;
14  end;
