Just going from memory, guestimating over 80% of the windows worms use a
script of some sort as part of their infection vector. I don't know about
linux worms.

   There is nothing that native code couldn't do.  In other words, there are
no additional capabilities.  What fraction of recent worms have used
cmd.exe on Windows or one of the shells on linux/unix?
