Batch file to delete temporary internet files and others

I need to be able to clear the browser cache of temporary files, cookies, etc.  Ideally from a script so that it can be attached to a home page on the local machine.  It will always be invoked from a script on the local machine, not via a web page, but this seems to be extremely difficult

PeteLong answered a similar question on 11/11/03 by supplying source code to paste into Notepad, save as 'delete.vbs', then simply run the file.

The code works a dream when you run the code from a VB project in say Excel or other Office application, but does not work when I run the 'delete.vbs'; instead I get a VBS compilation error in line 3.  Ideally I want to run this as a script from the browser homepage so that it automatically clears the PC's cache whenever the user goes to their home page.  How can this be done, or failing that, what's the easiest way to make the script a straight executable which can be invoked from the homepage?  There seems no solution in JavaScript, so this VB (hopefully VBScript) seems the only possibility.

I predominantly code in JavaScript, so apologise if this is more straight forward in VBScriptFor reference I attach the source code below:
