Hi William,

That could be a security issue. Unless you authenticate a user, ASP pages run as the IUSR_machine account where "machine" should be the name of your machine. By default, the IUSR_ account does have very limited rights and can't launch an EXE. Giving IUSR_ access to WScript.Shell is not a good idea. However, if you compile the EXE into a COM EXE server, you can use DCOMCNFG to give IUSR_* access to this component. If the ASP page runs with medium or high application protection, you also have to give access to the IWAM_MACHINE user.
