    I tested the following:
    <%
dim fs,fo,x
set fs=Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
set fo=fs.GetFolder("c:\test\") 'replaced with: [B]http://k.domaindlx.com/infowars/BeWiseAsSerpents/[/B]

for each x in fo.files
  'Print the name of all files in the test folder
  Response.write(x.Name & "<br />")
next

set fo=nothing
set fs=nothing
%>
    Code (markup):
    But I got an error:

    Looks like it's failing cause it can't find the 'Scripting' object.
    Make sure the site is it's on is set up with ASP.

    If i understand well from what you've said the error is "Server.CreateObject Failed" but anyway it has given the expected results (has returned the list of the files).
    Usually this error is happening when the cdonts.dll file either isn't on the server at all or isn't registered ...
    However, you should contact your ISP and ask them about that.
    Btw, is that Windows Server 2003? If it's the WinServer 2k3 be aware that it actually does not install Collaboration Data Objects (CDO) and CDONTS for NTFS respectivelly.
    Therefore, application that uses CDONTS doesn't function on a Windows Server 2003.

    Regards :)
