    Why? This had nothing at all to do with Perl.

    It is, of course, true that one should not post to comp.lang.perl
    (because it doesn't exist (see FAQ)).

    However, general (language neutral) questions about programming for
    the CGI API or questions about IIS configuration should be posted to
    newsgroups that deal with those topics respectively.

    Such questions should not be posted to newsgroups that deal with the
    Perl programming language as they will be unwellcome there.

    To the OP: try to partition your problems. Did you seriously think
    that the fact that there was a Perl process between the IIS process
    and the .bat script would make the situation any different from having
    had a python script or having written a CGI script completely as a
    .bat? If not then why did you think that a Perl newsgroup was the
    place to ask about this?
