Testing with Low IL

While playing around with Internet Explorer, managed BHO and Remoting servers, I was annoyed that my BHO kept interfering with my day to day browsing needs. (In order to debug the BHO I had some Debug.Asserts in the BHO which gets to you after a while if you need to use the browser.) Also, shutting down IE all the time if I had to change something in the BHO was not helping. Anyway, I needed a better low IL client. Here is one that gives me a low IL command prompt from which I can test.
