    You may want to uninstall or disable the Windows Scripting Host:

    And/or install ScripTrap:

    ScripTrap...

    Now Nirvman, do you think I would post it if it didn't work? By "it" I assume you mean ScripTrap. I asked Robin Keir "How can I tell if ScripTrap is working?" Like, I didn't want to try it out with a live virus. He sent me a harmless VBS test file that when run will trigger ScripTrap. I can send the VBS test file to you or anyone else. You can grit your teeth when you doubleclick it wondering if it really is harmless. However, if you have Windows Scripting Host disabled, ScripTrap won't trip because VBS can't run.

    BTW, if you want to see your anti-virus prog go nuts, hopefully, here's a link where you can obtain an anti-virus test file:
