So have VBS script 1 call a batch file, and have the batch file call VBS script 2?
As for the vendor... It's iBoss, a content filtering company. And we're definitely not the first in Florida to use them. :-) -----Original Message----- From: Michael B.

If they say that no one else is experiencing this, then they probably haven't sold their solution elsewhere. :-) Regards, Michael B.

The first suggestion hangs the login completely. Which makes sense, because the first script is waiting for the second script to finish, but the second script will never finish; its whole purpose is to run perpetually as long as the user is logged in. The second suggestion calls the second script, but same problem as before--it only runs for a moment before quitting. The WScript.exe process doesn't continue to run in the background after the user is logged in.

If that doesn't work, try: objShell.Run "wscript \\server\path\SecondScript.vbs", 0, True That should work for sure, as it explicitly starts a new script host. You may need the full path to WSCRIPT.EXE; I'm not sure if .Run honors PATH or not. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ NOTICE: Florida has a broad public records law.
