in thread null character problem

Thank you for you'r reply but I still have a problem with this. The reason is that the while loop stops at this Evil line! The loop is not continuing till the end of the file but stops before, somehow perl thinks this null character is the EOF.

    You need to strip the null byte out before you run it thru the while loop.

      It seems I overcomed this problem by using: 
      binmode(LOGFILE);
