Disable Keyboard in VBScript

[ITBassett]

I've found some references out on the web to AutoIt being able to disable input from the keyboard/mouse during a VBScript execution. These same references talk about having to register a DLL, the AutoITx3.dll and then use the following code snippet:

Set oAutoIt = CreateObject("AutoItX.Control")

oAutoIt.BlockInput "on"

When I run this VBScript using the WSH, I get "ActiveX Component can't create object: 'AutoITX.Control'"

Any thoughts on what I've possibly done wrong?

It'd be easier just to call int BlockInput(int block) from user32.dll. That saves you the COM link if you only need one function.
