I have an application that i run as a local web service using Microweb. It has worked for years. All of the perl code is complied into standalone exes using perlapp from activestate. In running it on a new computer running Windows XP SP2 I noticed I was getting two copies of the application starting when the CGI form was called. The issue is that the smaller version of the application 76KB fails to exit, but the larger version of the application exits just fine. Over time it causes the system to become unstable. Any ideas on what the stub application might be? or how I can check it while its running in memory. While expermenting, I tried the same application running on the same computer, but using Apache 2.0.58 and the stubs exit just fine.....
