Elmer,
   I had same problem.  Do you have something like ScriptSentry on your 
machine. If you check your registry VBSFILE may be interceptied by 
ScriptSentry or something like it.  To get around this precede the script 
run with  C:\WINNT\system32\wscript.exe "yourscriptpath and scriptname"  
This will prevent ScriptSentry from intercepting the script.  

I hope this helps.
