A couple of things. One are you sure where the dos opens it can find americanbulls.nbl? Something to try is to load the command in cliptext and just run cmd then past the line in the cliptext to the dos prompt.
pr = "c:\Program Files\Newbie\newbie.exe "
ps = "/login admin /password asdfasdf"
sc =  '/script "americanbulls.nbl" /exec ie /windowstate 0'
tg = (pr) + (ps) + (sc)
_CLIPTEXT = tg
RUN cmd
Then in the command box right click on the top of the window and select edit paste.
