sHow do you repair damaged script host files. I installed Norton's Internet
Security and cannot open the program console. Norton's says that my windows
script host files are damaged. I have tried everything that is available
(downloaded a fix from Microsoft) and nothing seems to work. Anyone got a
clue what to do?

Script files are just text files with specific content and file extension.
If they are corrupt then you would need to get good copies from
somewhere. It is unclear what you real problem is, but it sounds
like perhaps you should be asking Norton support, not Microsoft
newsgroups.

doh . . .
I may have just understood Stefan's post.

If in fact it is the scripting engine that is at issue, not some
specific script files, then you could likely use that minor update
release MS made a year and a half ago
