Order (or just read more about) Windows Admin Scripting Little Black Book  from Amazon.com

This is a jumbled and disorganized pile of stuff. The "stuff" isn't necessarily bad stuff, but it's a mess of registry hacks, Kixstart and WSH scripts, shareware utiliies and DOS batch files all piled together with very little coherence.

If you wanted to learn Windows scripting, this probably isn't the book. On the other hand, you might find some useful tips and tricks here. The title advertises this as a "Concise Problem Solver"- I'm not sure it's exactly that, either, but it does cover a lot of ground at great speed from a great height.

Overall, I'll give it a 6 out of 10.
