SAFErating from user C_Denninger for file C:\Windows\System32\cscript.exe (Variant: 40991135)
CScript.exe is Microsoft's command-based script host used for running Visual Basic (VBS) and Java (JS) script-files. There is also a windows-based (WScript.exe) version. The executable itself is save, like the command-prompt (CMD.exe) but the scripts themselves can pose a threat to the system.
