Users rides glitch?

The load is occurring in the task manager.

FLOCK is supported by the Linux OS, and has nothing to do with Perl per say. Yes, I have it and can us it, but I'm not. It isn't really like file sharing control on Windows. It's essentially what I am doing on my own, but the OS handles the lock. It is more reliable and efficient though, but I don't use it because it would make the app non-portable to Windows. The great thing about writing something in Perl is that as long as you don't use external Unix commands, you can simply put the code on a Win box or a Unix box and it will run the same. If you use FLOCK, that is not the case and it would not function on Windows. Since one of our boxes is a Win2k server, I want the app to run on either. And, in the past it DID run on the Win box for a while.
