limiting processes

Is there any way i can limit the cpu time a processes takes? more specificly ipop3d? Once in a while i get a runaway one that takes 99% of my cpu time up and blocks others from accessing popmail. Also my syslogd process usually hovers at around 25% and i want to keep that down a little too. Thanks
