The problem is on line 856: while ( $tmpPage =~ s/^.*?^[\s]*<tr class=msg(new|old).*?^<td.*?name="Mid".value="([^"]+)".*?^<td>(.*?)<.*?^<td>.*?^[\s]*<a.href=.*?ShowLetter\?MsgId=([^&]+)&.*?\n(.*?)\n.*?^[\s]*<td .*?>(.*?)<.*?^[\s]*<td>(.*?)<//ms ) {
Strangely, perl is totally hanging on this line, at least with the Yahoo account I'm testing it with. I even took the $tmpPage stuff content out and wrote a one line perl script that just attempts to run the s// expression on that string and it maxes out my CPU and hangs. I can't understand why perl would ever do this... Something is obviously awry. I tried it on two separate systems with different perl installations (stable and unstable) with same result. If you remove either the m or the s flag from the end of the regexp, it doesn't hang. I'm not sure if that will screw up fetchyahoo otherwise, though. Can someone help figure out what's going on here? -- Adam Rosi-Kessel http://adam.rosi-kessel.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
