you could launch shelexec.exe with the url as parameter. shelexec.exe (note only 1 L) is freeware.

Hi Stefan.

Is there any other way i can accomplish without actually triggering any external exe.?
Please suggest if there is an alternate way.

regards
Balaji

I was able to implement this by creating vbscript custom action and create a shell process and launching the URL. Thanks for your suggestion.
