Chris,

It is really strange.
It should start immediately when running the script and the whole
process lasts about 5 seconds.

Using
system $systemcall;
instead of
open (DDF, "$systemcall") ...
works fine.

This also works:
$systemcall='\\/c/WINDOWS/system32/makecab.exe /V3 /F ...

And this too:
$systemcall='&&/c/WINDOWS/system32/makecab.exe /V3 /F ...


HTH,
Gerrit
