Microsoft to kill off VBScript in Windows to block malware delivery
(www.bleepingcomputer.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
The article is not about VBA, it's about VBS. The languages are similar but not the same (why exactly MS did it this way I'll never know).
VBA is for embedded macros in MS Office documents.
VBS is a standalone language you write into .vbs files that get executed by wscript.exe. It's a default windows feature that has been around a long time (IIRC the ILOVEYOU worm used it).
