#include and server.execute are intended to execute server side code.
You could use the HTML "script" tag with the src attribute to point to a
local javaScript file.
IMO it would be better to just have an ASP Page that send the appropriate
script to the browser (so that you don't have to deploy anything to target
machines). In your client side JavaScript code you sould be able to create a
Scripting.FileSystemObject to browse a directory for files.
Note that users will have to accept to run this script or that you'll have
to alter a global security policy as this is obviously not allowed by
default...

The idea is to get a listing of all .exe files in a directory on a client
computer and pass the information back to a server to update a database.
The directory is specified by the user via a form on an Extranet.
It could be possible to have a file (script or something) on the client
machine, which could be invoked via a page on the Extranet, but I still
don't know how that would really work if I can't do a #include or server.execute
to a file other than a file on the server.

Do you want to execute this code server side (some kind of
personnalization) ? One for each client ? Is this some client side personnalization ?
Knowing what you are trying to achieve will help to make better
suggestions...
