Welcome to the forum phiitpoi!
Media Center doesnt include a browser, but if you have a htpc (Home Theatre PC) it is a PC and will have any browser you install.

thanks =)
Yup i was just thinking cause linux mythtv has Browser plugin, its easier to go browsing internet without closing down mediacenter or sliding it to taskbar.
Trying to make 100% benefit of controlling pc by remote control = ) but i guess its not possible.. Maybe its easy to slide down media center and just start web-browser from desktop.
Really cool forums, i like this layout how this is done, so clear everything !
