The easiest way to do this would be to use the Shell.Application automation object; going to a URL is as simple as:

oShell = CREATEOBJ('Shell.Application')
oShell.Open('http://www.levelextreme.com')

This pretty much assumes that IE4 or later is installed; if it is, it's virtually certain that Shell.Application is there.

You can also install the WebBrowser ActiveX control, or use the FFC ShellExecute class rather than relying on the services of Shell.Application, or any of dozens of other options. Once opened, you can hook the instance of IE that you fired up via the Shell.Application's Windows collection.
