* Fix for KB3185319 issue on Windows OSes with IE11

Windows Update KB3185319 for IE11 that was pushed to MS supported OSes 
on Tue 13/09/2016 causes the slight annoyance described in 
https://squarepenguin.co.uk/forums/thread-1051-post-4731.html
and documented in 
get-iplayer/get_iplayer#303

OSes affected are Win7, Win8.1 and Win10. 
WinVista also got a KB3185319 update but remains 
unaffected, because there the maximum version of IE is 9. 

Instead of launching the .url file from within the batch file, 
we can dispense altogether with it and instead launch 
the system's default browser to URL=http://localhost:1935 
via the native START command...
Tested to work OK on a Win7 SP1 64bit laptop.
