Turns out this idiot was trying to create a website on his desktop PC and planned to serve it using his dial-up. I asked for the URL to his site and he sent me something like C:\Documents and Settings\admin\My Documents\My Site\page.htm

I told him that there was no way that anyone could ever access that site except for him and he refused to believe me because he "could see it just fine and it loaded really fast."

I almost fell out of my chair laughing.
Your script didn't work bottom line.

C:\Documents and Settings\kenny\My Documents\My Site\porn.htm

Looks everything works on that site except your perl script
