Pre-Amble
This modification will allow the forums Administration and Moderation teams to browse the forum, or the web, from the comfort of their Moderation / Administration Control Panel.

Why would you want this? Not only will this keep your moderators and administrators in their control panel more, but it makes using the control panel a much less time consuming task. They're able to simply and quickly hit a button to perform their tasks, as opposed to logging into the control panel to do each thing.
Admin CP
Upload the files inside the attached .ZIP, and that's it.

The files should look like this...

/forums/cpb_browse.php
/forums/includes/xml/cpnav_cpb.xml

The /forums/ is very important!
Feel free to edit the files if you don't want to put it in a /forums/ directory, just edit out the /forums/ inside the XML using Notepad

Mod CP
This is a simple coding edit, and I owe Ragtek the respect he deserves for his thread on this [His Thread]

Simply go to Plugins & Products -> Add New Plugin in your Admincp, and enter in the following values.

Product: vBulletin
Hook: mod_index_navigation
Title: Moderation Control Panel Browser
Execution Order: 5
Plugin PHP Code :
Code:
construct_nav_option('Forum Home', '/forums/');
        construct_nav_option('Enter URL', '/forums/cpb_browse.php');
        construct_nav_group('ModCP Browser');
        construct_nav_spacer();
Plug is Active: Yes

This is all you need to add the required links to the ModCP.
Lets get into some customizations though, as you can see that my cpb_browse.php is located inside a /forums/ folder (something I dont like, but the person I did this for does).

Simply change the /forums/ part to whatever you like,
/ for the servers root
/forums/ for the forums directory off the forums root
You get the picture.
