LWP

[Deb Thompson]

I've written a program that checks for the existence of a website by
retrieving an HTTP header when fed a URL.  It works beautifully on my server
(NT running Windows '98) but locks when I installed it on my client's server
(NT running Windows 2000).  The important guts of the code are:

        use LWP::Simple;
        use CGI;
        CGI::ReadParse(*in);

        $url1 = $in{"site"};
        if (!$in{"backit"}){
                $base_url=$url1;
                $test=head($base_url);
        }

        if ($test && !$in{"backit"}) {
                #etc.

Any ideas on why this won't run on the other server?  (I already made sure
that the LWP module was installed.)
