Wouldn't it be more beneficial to stop them from running away in the first place?

I just upgraded from Windows 98 to Windows 2000 Professional and I need to know how to kill runaway perl.exe processes. When I try to kill them in task manager I'm told that I'm not allowed to do this. Any ideas? Also, can anyone see any reason that this would not work? $done = 0; while (@row=$sth2->fetchrow_array && $done == 0) { if (($row[0] == $pid) && ($row[1] == 1) && ($done == 0)) { print qq~Product has been sold already, select a different product.\n~; $done = 1; } if ($done == 0) { print qq~Item $pid has been placed in your shopping cart. <A HREF = "viewcart.pl">CLICK HERE TO VIEW CART CONTENTS</A>\n~; $done = 1; } } Please excuse me for not posting all the code, but last time I did I didn't get any responses, probably because it was too long. Here's to second chances! -Dave -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
