I can run a "hello world" script, but trying to run this sample script:
C:\Users\thufir\Desktop>
C:\Users\thufir\Desktop>powershell -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned
Windows PowerShell

PS C:\Users\thufir\Desktop>

# Working example of how to use PowerShell (version >= 2) to access a web service.
$svc = New-WebServiceProxy –Uri ‘http://www.webservicex.net/stockquote.asmx?WSDL’
$svc | Get-Member # Use Get-Member to discover the interface of a web service.
# Get stock quotes.
$svc.GetQuote(‘BA’) # Boeing

Is this a policy problem? Or, problem with the script itself?
also:
PS C:\Users\thufir\Desktop>
PS C:\Users\thufir\Desktop> .\hello.ps1

It looks to me like an issue with the web service you are calling. It is returning the string "exception". Your code is functioning correctly.
Navigate to the site Stock Quote Detail and run a test I get an exception returned there as well.
