Process.Start is the ideal function to resolve this issue. Example to call google page is given below:

VB

Sub Main()
    SearchGoogle("VB.NET awesome")
    End Sub

    ''' <summary>
    ''' Open the user's default browser and search for the parameter.
    ''' </summary>
    Private Sub SearchGoogle(ByVal t As String)
    Process.Start("http://google.com/search?q=" & t)
    End Sub
