Last I knew, WSH scripts (.js, .vbs and .wsf) were not directly
callable from the hooks because they require an interpreter, they
aren't executed directly by the system. At least that was the
conclusion that was reached when I was discussing with a couple of the
devs a year or so ago.

To use WSH scripts, you have to call them from a batch file.
