It is known problem.
InvokeVerb does not work in Win32OLE (in Ruby 1.8). 
Instead try to use doIt.
  @ej1 = @shell.NameSpace(name)
  @ej2 = @ej1.Self
  verbs = @ej2.verbs
  verb = nil
  verbs.each do |v|
    if v.name == "Expu&lsar"
       verb = v
    end
  end
  if verb
    verb.doIt
  end

FYI, in Ruby 1.9, InvokeVerb works by using WIN32OLE_VARIANT class.
  
  @ej3 = @ej2.InvokeVerb(WIN32OLE_VARIANT.new("Expu&lsar"))
