Solution or Workaround
This almost always indicates a code error in the script you are executing. If you recently edited one of the PDshop scripts, you made an error in your VBscript code. This is a basic script writing error, such as a typo.
NOTE: If you receive this error when first installing PDshop or an update, the script may be damaged or is corrupt. This can happen during the installation process. For example, if your FTP software does not successfully upload a file (it may upload only part of it, truncated). You should overwrite (re-upload) the script mentioned in the error message, with a new/unmodified copy from your original zip file/download.
