Check the manual for the infinite String manipulation functions.
If all your records start with a 'www' then the easy way out is:
UPDATE table SET column_name=CONCAT("http://",column_name);
If not then, again the easy way out is:
UPDATE table SET column_name=CONCAT("http://",column_name) WHERE column_name LIKE
'www%';
