Well, I can see two things:
1) The path is wrong. d:\Microsoft Internet isn't it, most likely, unless 
you did some kind of custom install.
2) The executable name is also wrong.  Iexplorer.exe is NOT the name of the 
executable, it is Iexplore.exe.

I suggest you run a search on your system for iexplore.exe, which will give 
you the full and correct pathname.
