Create an empty HTML page:

HTML

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>  
  <head>  
    <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1250">  
    <meta name="generator" content="PSPad editor, www.pspad.com">  
    <title>MY Downloads
    </title> 
  </head>  
  <body>

  </body>
</html>

Save it somewhere you can find it: D:\Temp\blank.html will do.
Then just

VB

Process.Start("D:\Temp\blank.html")

That'll start the default browser for the system, and open the blank file.
