On my windows vista computer vbs scripts don't run they just open with notepad is there anyway to get them to run using batch mabey by making a self compiled hybrid ?

cscript /e:vbscript /nologo "c:\someScript.vbs"

or

wscript "c:\someScript.vbs"

Probably you've changed default handler of .vbs extension with right click -> "open with".This is curable - check and edit HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.vbs\OpenWithList
