Isn't there already a controller for ie8? I can't check, but you can list 
the available browsers with

>>> import webbrowser
>>> list(webbrowser._browsers)
['x-www-browser', 'kfmclient', 'firefox', 'konqueror']

Then if you want to open a page with a specific browser just do

url = "http://www.python.org"
browser = "firefox"
webbrowser.get(browser).open(url)
