Thank you. Glory to God.

My problem was solved after removing the registry key that was pointing to a Mcafee antivirus.

The antivirus avia been removed incorrectly.

Old:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Classes \ CLSID \ {B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8} \ InprocServer32]

@ = "C: \ \ Program Files \ \ Common Files \ \ McAfee \ \ SystemCore \ \ ScriptSn.20101116171926.dll"

"ThreadingModel" = "Both"

to:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Classes \ CLSID \ {B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8} \ InprocServer32]

@ = "C: \ \ Windows \ \ System32 \ \ vbscript.dll"

"ThreadingModel" = "Both"

Can not find script engine vbscript.

Resolved.

Looks like it was possibly done because of a Virus in the first place. I had one user have this issue and it didn't make any sense because I hadn't performed any updates to McAfee.

Another alternative to manually updating the registry entry is to do a "regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\vbscript.dll" which does the job for you.

This worked for me!

Thanks Scott!

If it's been deleted from your hard drive then you need to obtain it from somwhere - it is installed by default and should be available on the installation media you got with your system.

It could alternatively be copied from another system with the same OS & SP level.

Chuck it. i downloaded vbscript.dll separately and pasted it. The Scripts 5.8 won't get installed as "Your machine already has some higher version blah blah". So 5.8 didnt get installed. Now things are ok ! phew !
