Good stuff Truckin! Thanks for sharing.

For the record, I am not religious on any particular technology or scripting languages. Whatever suits the needs and get the job done, and easy to read and maintain, more power to you, I am all for it. Be it JavaScript, VBScript, WMI, PowerShell, Perl, whatnot. I think they all have their places. I am totally digging Perl at the moment.

I originally wrote this article maybe 5 years ago. It is actually surprising, and rewarding at the same time, that so many people find it useful.

Happy scripting everybody!
