Creating Virtual Directory from script

I have a function that creates a new Virtual Directory. I would like
to alter this function so that it sets a few properties on this new
virtual directory, namely I want to make it so "Execute Permissions"
are set to "Scripts Only" (currently this defaults to "None". Also I
want to make the new virtual directory an application (as if I created
the virtual directory manually and clicked the "Create Application"
button on the vd properties.

Thanks,
-J

Public Function CreateVirtualDi r(aPath As String, Name As String,
ServerName As String) As Boolean
Dim Root
Dim rtn As Boolean
Dim Dir

rtn = True
On Error Resume Next

Set Root = GetObject("IIS://" & ServerName & "/W3SVC/1/ROOT")

Set Dir = Root.Create("II sWebVirtualDir" , Name)
Dir.Path = aPath
Dir.AccessRead = True
Dir.AccessWrite = True
Dir.AppCreate = True
Dir.EnableDirBr owsing = False

Dir.AppFriendly Name = Name
Dir.SetInfo

Set Dir = Nothing
Set Root = Nothing

If (Err.Number <> 0) Then

'MsgBox "Web Server doesn't exist"
rtn = False
End If
End Function

I was under the impression that creating the app_offline.htm file at the root of the webapp would cause all handles to be closed so that the app could be removed. Unfortunately, this isn't the case. One handle remains open. Debugging shows that it's actually the IIS cache and not ASP.NET that owns this handle. During IIS shutdown, the handle is closed with the following stack trace: ChildEBP RetAddr 0006fbe4 5a403e05...
