Perhaps an option to disable scripting in the preview pane would be the best
option. Attachments are blocked and can't be opened or saved, but scripts
that do something that's not wanted for e-mail messaging are allowed.

To me it looks like Microsoft is doing a bad job here. Just block scripts
and stop using VBScript.
