Hi sunspun - as WSH is a core windows component, removing it seems a little harsh when there are viable alternatives. Also there is no way of knowing what effect this might have on your OS (sometimes there are unexpected consequences as we all know). Why not install Script Sentry instead. As long as you make sure that your AV is kept updated, the two running together should protect you from malicious scripts.
