You can use the open command (see the man page for details):
open -a Internet\ Explorer http://www.cnn.com
or, if you don't want to specify a particular app:
open http://www.cnn.com
neither worked for me.
first example opened explorer w/o trying to access the url.
2nd example got 'No such file' prepended with current path.
