you can't just call an HTML page via Windows autorun, it won't 
work...

that being said, here's a freeware executable that acts as sort of a 
proxy to the autorun:

http://duckware.com/winopen.html

WinOpen 1.2a
Open HTML files in a CD AUTORUN.INF 
For Windows 95, 98, Me, NT, 2000, etc. 

This program is freeware and subject to use under a license 
agreement. If you use this program, please send us an e-mail 
letting us know how you are using it and how well (or not) is has 
worked for you. 

TIP: Actually WinOpen will open any file type as long as the 
computer running your CD has a program associated with that file 
type (eg: pdf, doc, txt, bmp, jpg, mpg).
