According to the standard MapInfo license agreement, you can't use 
MapInfo in an interactive mode over the Internet. If you did that, you 
would be exposing your company to potential legal trouble. The details are 
in the MapInfo license that came with your software.

You can do this with a MapXtreme application (if you buy the internet
license) but that's sort of a pricey solution to this sort of need.  
Instead, you might just set up a pass-through link to MapQuest or Google
Maps.
