Eric,

Not really, but I do have a question. I noted in another thread that you stated that you downloaded the latest version of the WSH from Microsoft. I'm wondering if you've tried to install it on Win2K as well as the Win98 box.

Some notes, the WSH under Win98 was an option, but the default was set so that it would install. The other thing is that it is not an option on Win2K and higher. It's necessary part of the package. The reason I'm mentioning this is that I'm wondering if one or two (or both things) happened. First, that the download wasn't corrupt and second, if it was, did it cause the problem.
