Here is a little tip - How to redirect users to a certain page after they have filled out a browser enabled form with InfoPath Forms Services (IPFS):
You should look for the "source" query string parameter in the form's URL, and change it to you certain page.
That's it! every click on the "Close" button on IPFS toolbar, every rule you have insert that closes the form (i.e. in the submit button), or every other closing of the form will navigate the user to the URL in the "source" parameter.
This way, you can hide the actual form library in MOSS, and give the user only a direct link to fill out the form. After filling out the form the user will be redirected back to the page without going through the form library.
