One way to guard against script viruses and worms is obviously to delete
Wscript.exe entirely. What I'd like to know is how does this affect the
system (W2k)? Do I loose features that I might need? Also, I'm not exactly
sure whether IE and Outlook Express use Wscript.exe to run scripts, so any
info on that would be appreciated. Good links will do!

Thanks!
