No different than creating any other shortcut - just type in the full URL of the desired Internet resource, instead of a program name.

Dear Garrido,
add it in your MSI script instead of using the IDE shortcut dialog.

Where can I find the MSI file? In my disk I only can see the .MIA file.

Garrido, what I think Francesco is suggesting is that you add his code example into your MSIcode tab in the IDE. Position the cursor at a line where you want to insert the statement.
I assume that you are using the Studio Admin version of IA?

In fact, I meant this.
To be more precise, the MSI scripting feature is available with InstallAware Developer, Studio and Studio Admin editions.
