I hope this is the right area.
I followed the directions found here for setting up the MCE remote that came with my Zbox AD12. One thing I did was to change the windows media center button to open Firefox. I set my home page on firefox to be netflix. I used eventghost to do this. It does open firefox, but in the background. Does anyone know how to minimize XBMC to show firefox? I would like to set up the remote so that the Windows button opens firefox and minimizes xbmc while another button closes firefox and opens xbmc.
If I'm not wrong you could solve that by running xbmc in "full screen window" instead of "true full screen". That wouldn't minimize xbmc but likely allow Firefox to pop-up in front Smile
If I remember correctly (not beenu sing it for a long time),
using advanced louncher addon will do the trick for you.

Mimimize XBMC when you open app from it and bring it back to focus when you close app.
