I've installed the same exact UPS connection with WIN.PCRUN without a
problem. The only potential problem that I came into was each particular
user may have IEXPLORE in a different folder and the PC side can't find it.

I test WIN.PCRUN at TCL with the following statement:

PRINT ; CALL WIN.PCRUN("IEXPLORE","WWW.EBAY.COM")

Using a simple URL may prove if it's the URL, its syntax or the actual
mechanics of IEXPLORE.

My 1 cent.
