How do I add a reference to an assembly that is registered in the GAC?
I have just signed the assembly with a strong-name and added it into the GAC
and above to reference it from my web page.
However, couldn't find it in the COM folder of the Add Reference option.
When I browse to it (in the Windows - Assembly directory), I found it there
but was not able to add it to my list of references.

Do we reference a GAC registered assembly from the network directory where
it was downloaded e.g. c://testing/mathlib.dll

Thanks for your help.

You don't.

Yes, or copy it to a local directory and reference it from there.
