He uses TabControl, not WebBrowser.
Couldn't use just combine the two. Make them work together? And he still made a tutorial on how to make a TABBED webbrowser and more which I supplied you the link to. But if you don't like it then okay. I tried.
Use a "Tab Control" and a "Web Browser" , not a "Tabbed Web browser, and code ur tabs to load ur browser home page each time you add a tab. Why dont you just use a tabbed webbrowser ?
