Trying to use PSEXE to open a browser on a networked PC to a specific page...

I'm trying to do this from one Windows 7 machine to another on the same network. I'm able to use PSTOOLS in general across these PC's but not for this specific task. I've turned on Network Discovery, and File and Printer Sharing. I've made the account that I'm using on the first PC an administrator on the second and I'm including that account name and password in the PSEXEC command.

The website that I'm trying to point the newly opened Internet Explorer to is a trusted Intranet site. I can open it up fine from a link on the desktop of the receiving PC but if I try to point a browser to that website using PSEXEC from the sending PC, it asks for credentials as if it weren't a trusted site. Any help would be appreciated!

-- Thanks to everyone for your replies, I'll try again Monday and let everyone know if I got it to work or if someone says "WTF are you doing that for??? Do blah blah blah instead" and I have a better option.

-- Sorry, I should have included the command I'm using, off the top of my head it looks like this (minus a switch or two I included):

psexec @complab1 -u cladministrator -p 8675309 "%SystemDrive%\program files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe" "https://boblawblog.com"

@complab is the file containing the computer names.
