Client side script can't use fso from IIS
that happened to me too. it took days for me to relize
that the fso will never run on the client only localy.
its a permisions thing. would you want to brows to a page
on the net and have it have a script use the fso to delet
your hard drive? it may work though if the settings in ie
are set to the lowest permitable. otherwise use an ocx or
applet
