windows scripting - toughest problem in modern computing?

I need some URGENT help solving this problem which many discussion forums say is "IMPOSSIBLE". Please tell me how to detect and dismiss an Internet Explorer modal dialog (javascript alert window) from an automation script, WITHOUT using the classic AppActivate/SendKeys hack. The main script is in VBScript but your solution may be written in ANY LANGUAGE to be invoked from the main script. It is very important not to use AppActivate/SendKeys because it's unreliable. I need a direct, 100% reliable "Window Handle" type of integration which can detect the correct window and dismiss it without any randomness or timing issues. There is more than one alert box in the application, and I need the script to take different action depending on the text contents. The solution must be uploaded TONIGHT so please make sure you have it clear in your mind before you bid. ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows?
