Menalto Photo gallery on WIndows 2003 server

I was looking at installing Menalto Photo Gallery

http://gallery.menalto.com

on my Windows 2003 standard server. One of the installation instructions asks you to copy cmd.exe to the php directory and give IUSR_machinename Read/Execute permission. Can anyone shed some light on security implications of giving such permissions to cmd.exe? Thanks.
