Ah, I should probably send this publicly...

There was an error when I ran this. Each server I've run this on claim
to have no jobs, so the file for CheckJobStats was never created.

The following code, around line 122, "fixes" it. You can see that it
only opens the file if it exists, then deletes immediately after
reading instead of after the variable assignment. It could be
simplified by always setting tmpStr to No Job History, then replace it
with f.ReadAll as needed.

There are a few other minor improvements that could be made (e.g.
change <td> to <th> in table head; maybe remove <br> from within
tables since it doesn't seem to serve any purpose).

Loop
if fso.FileExists(strFilePath & "\" & tempfilename) then
       Set f = fso.OpenTextFile(strFilePath & "\" & tempfilename ,1 )
               If Not f.AtEndOfLine Then
                       tmpStr = f.ReadAll
               Else
                       tmpStr = "              No Job History. " & vbcrlf
               End If
       f.Close
       fso.DeleteFile strFilePath & "\" & tempfilename
else
       tmpStr = "              No Job History. " & vbcrlf
end if
