Which version of C# are you using? C# 2.0 has a web browser control which can host html files, and while there is no way to simply run javascript code by itself (that I know of), as long as it is part of a web page displayed in a web browser control it will be run just as you would expect when browsing the page in IE.

There is also an ActiveX web browser control you can use. I can't remember the details, but a google search should bring up plenty of info. And if you host an html file in a web browser control, it will behave exactly as it would in Internet Explorer (it is, in fact, an Internet Explorer browser minus the menu, title bar, status bar, et cetera).

All you have to do is add a reference to the appropriate .dll and drop it in like a WinForms control. (On my computer the DLL was located at C:\Windows\System32\shdocvw.dll, the control is named WebBrowser). If this is the control you are using, what is the problem?
