netscape.exe has a number of command line arguments.  I think these
are detailed in the online help.  If I recall correctly, my
experimentations indicated you could only do one at a time, and not
combine them.  This was with 4.0 or 4.01, so perhaps they've addressed
that issue by now.

But as for closing a window, that could be considered a malicious
applet or web page.  So it may not be possible.
