BBWin is not executing the script for the tests, but I can not figure out
why!  I call all of my scripts, three on this box, using one CMD file.  All
scripts are in the ext directory, and I edited the registry so that the BB
client externals path is set to the BBWIN\tmp directory.  If I execute the
CMD file manually, it all works fine.

Here is my script, which is saved as a CMD file

cd D:\Program Files\BBWin\ext
cscript //b bbsav.vbs
cscript //b iis-check.vbs
cscript //b exchange.vbs

Here is my BBWIN config file

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>

I recently disabled a couple of tests when I had some

WinBB client.  Now that I have fixed the problem with the WinBB 
client, and re enabled the tests, I am still getting a BLUE status 
icon, and it has been like that for days.  Any suggestions?

After enabling it, you will see the status remain blue until 
an update is sent by the client. So if your server is down 
(or the WinBB client is not running), the status will remain 
blue even though it has been re-enabled.

If you go look at the detailed status, does it say "disabled 
until ...."
at the top of the status page ? If it does, then Hobbit still 
considers it disabled. If not, then it is just waiting for an update.
