I do not know other ways. probably you can try,
while (<>)
{
sleep x;
your script task;
}
This will let your script keep running and never exit, you can change "x"
value to setup the frequency as your wish.

Our business hosting service does not allow cron, they recommend checking
with a third party. I write the scripts on a windows machine and upload
them to the apache Unix server to test and execute them. Do you know of any
perl modules that self execute?

If you are using Unix, add your script in /etc/crontab like this.
0 3 * * * root /usr/local/bin/your-script
0 means run at minute 0.
3 means run at 3:00a.m.
* means every day

Does anyone know how to get a script to execute at a predefined time without
user interaction. I would like to monitor my sys clock and have the perl
script execute. Thanks
