CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Error
Beware that the reason for the "unsafe" warning is _not_ that there is a
security problem per se with the file system object, or even the code you
have written that makes use of it. The main reason is that, should you get
all of your clients to lower their security in order to run your scripted
page, they will open themselves up to innumerable attacks from other sites
that are not as benign as yours.
The second error message could reflect that the other machine you are
testing with may not have Windows Script Host installed (just a guess).
If the FSO is there so you can access files local to the client machine, and
if this is an intranet application, I suggest you convert to an HTML
application. Alternately, it might be possible to convert your script from
client-side to server side.
