Posting the full script would help. However, I took a swing at it and 
came up with this:
p `ruby -v`
require 'win32ole'
objShell = WIN32OLE.new("WScript.Shell")

com1 = WIN32OLE.new('Excel.Application')
script = WIN32OLE.new("MSScriptControl.ScriptControl")
script.language = "RubyScript"

script.addObject("com1",com1,true)


The output is:
>ruby -w winScript.rb    
"ruby 1.8.2 (2004-12-25) [i386-mswin32]\n"
winScript.rb:7:in `method_missing':  (WIN32OLERuntimeError)
    OLE error code:800A017C in ScriptControl
      A script engine for the specified language can not be created.
    HRESULT error code:0x80020009
      Exception occurred.	from winScript.rb:7
>Exit code: 1


So it looks like MSScriptControl doesn't like "RubyScript".
