This is a small idea I'm working on.. it should open the directory where the favorite links' files are (in my case: C:\WINDOWS\Desktop\Perl\scriptz\miei\opendir\1 ) but I get an error : bad file descriptor at line 10 ..

what can I do? I guess somebody already solved this problem because it seemed so obvious at the beginning but I can't figure out what is wrong.. 

$dir='C:\Windows\Desktop\Perl\scriptz\miei\opendir\1\ ';
opendir(DIR, $dir) || die "no $dir?: $!";
@filez=<DIR>;
foreach $name (sort readdir(DIR)) {
               print "$name\n";
               open FU, $name || die "can't read URL :$!";
               my @contfile=<FU>;
               $url=substr($contfile[1],8,);
               print "$url\n";
               close FU || die "$!";
               }

I thank you all in advance and hope you will excuse me for my ignorance of this language :)
