If you are happy with a Microsoft-only solution, you could use
asynchronous pluggable protocols
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/networking/pluggable/pluggable.asp)
as an alternative to moving to Redmond. (I assuming that you have some
code for resolving the URNs and are just looking for a way to integrate
this into the browser.) For Netscape, of course, you just need to
download, modify and build the Mozilla sources. ;-) Ease of
extensibility is one of the reasons that Microsoft won the browser wars.
