Do you specifically want internet explorer, or just whatever program
the user has installed for web browsing? (I suggest the latter)

For internet explorer:=20
system("iexplore.exe \"http://webpage.com\"",2)

For whichever program is registered to handle the file, use start.exe
system("start.exe \"c:\My Documents\test.doc\"",2) --opens test.doc in
the default program, probably microsoft word.
So to open the web page in the default web browser:

system("start http://www.webpage.com/",2)
