Warning! - Do not install this tag unless you have control over it's use! This tag represents a potentially severe security risk. Improper use may impair or cause failure with the operation of your server. Do not use it to start programs that are not self terminating, or that display a dialog in the event of an error or other condition. This tag makes no attempt to insure the complete execution or termination of a program, so it's a good idea to check for orphaned processes with the Task Manager (NT 4.0) or with tlist and kill (NT 3.51). |
