That sounds impossible, so I must be misunderstanding something.  What
happens when you do this (forgive me if this seems patronising, but I'm
missing something about the way you're working)

1. Start a new Command Prompt via Start / Programs / Accessories / Command
Prompt (or the equivalent on your machine)

2. Type the following: d:\python23\python d:\python23\socket6.py [Enter]

3. Double-click your .vbs file in Windows Explorer.

Now what does the python Command Prompt say?  By your description above,
it sounds like it disappears, but that ought to be impossible.
