throws error 80070002 on this line:

  intReturn = wshell.run("%%comspec%% /k cd\ & dir *.*", 1, False)

I've changed the perms on the folder to force basic authentication, just
so I'm certain how I'm logging in, and it's still giving the error. Is
this really perms error?

I'm assuming, though, that the 'run' portion should be literally the
same as what you'd enter in the 'run' dialog box. In that case, it's
only single '%' characters.
