IE can be started from JScript as an ActiveX control. Create a file named start_ie.js with the following contents and run (from command line or Run box):
var browser = new ActiveXObject("InternetExplorer.Application");
// the following two lines are not necessary. They are here just to show that you can associate
// properties to the browser object.
browser.putProperty("question", "123uiotuer4");
var q = browser.getProperty("question");
browser.visible = true; // default is false
browser.navigate('http://www.google.com/search?q=' + q);
