(ahem) The security problems have nothing to do whatsoever with the language. If MS had chosen Perl as its scripting language, we'd all be saying, "Aaaargh, Perl == Insecurity !!!", because all the capability to make evil system calls from a document would be there. I still think (forgive me Aaron) that VB should be available as a scripting language, although not the default one. We DO want as much MS Word compatibility as possible, don't we? Juan P.S. My vote for a "good" language goes to Perl and/or Javascript.
