Well, if you think about it, no one really talks about VBScript except
in the context of "Classic" ASP, as VBScript has little business being
on the client-side, except in rare occasions. I know that I have used
the term "ASP" to mean "server-side VBScript" a million times, which
is quite incorrect (ASP can be written in JScript, PerlScript, and any
other language with the appropriate hooks). So, that might explain the
latter oddity. I bet most of those hits for "ASP" are really talking
about server-side VBScript.
