About Miguel Zapico Expertise I can answer question about how to use scripts to consolidate data, connect different systems and automate tasks. I have no experience on using VBScript on web programming.
Experience I have been using VBScript and Windows Scripting Host as my swiss tool for the last 6 years.

Finally, I can give something back to the community at large at last.
Yes you can, and you don't need to run it as a service. I do it as part of my PC build images.
However this may be treated as a service by some people.
There are two ways to set it up. Reghack or policy.
The Easy way, is to use the policy editor. Run "mmc %systemroot%system32gpedit.msc"
Navigate to "Comp Config,win settings,scripts,
Startup", add you vbs file here.
The regkey looks like this...
"HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Group Policy\State\Machine\Scripts\Startup\0\0\Script". Note if you have more than 1 script entered, then the last digit increments (eg. 0\1\Script)
I don't use multiple scripts this way, I prefer One script that calls others. That way I know which one is running and when it's running.
