Hi

It is better to download and execute scr56en.exe...

You should do the installs below to be sure to have all files in place with
correct and latest versions:

Install Microsoft Windows Script from this download link:

Microsoft Windows Script 5.6 (Windows 9x, Me, NT4) a.k.a. WSH 5.6

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=0A8A18F6-249C-4A72-BFCF-FC6AF26DC390&displaylang=en

Then, after a boot, you should (re)install the following security patches for
WSH 5.6:

Security Update, February 14, 2002 for WSH 5.6 (vbscript.dll)
Windows Millennium Edition (Windows Me), Windows 98 and NT
http://download.microsoft.com/download/IE60/Patch/Q318089/W9XNT4Me/EN-US/vbs56men.exe

JScript 5.6 Security Patch Q814078 (jscript.dll)
Windows 98 Second Edition and Windows 98
http://www.microsoft.com/windows98/downloads/contents/WUCritical/q814078/default.asp

Then do a reboot again.
