>From what I've read fork() is flaky inWin32 due to not having a fork()
system command.  It would seem that POE has taken notice of this, and wishes
not to continue.  I'm sure if you check http://www.perlmonks.org , and
http://www.google.com, you will find a useful alternative to fork()ing in
Win32.

I've tried one of the example in the cookbook : Child Processes 3 and I get
this error (yes I'm using Windows 2000)

C:\Work\Clients\Comcast\RMEMigrate\perl>poe.pl
