Hi Bob

First thing I'd do is check the 'permissions' for search.pl ... make sure the
file is executable (755 or 777)

If that isn't the issue, I'd take a look at my server's error log. Most hosting
companies make this information available.

Lastly, I gather you were careful to upload the perl script components of 
Perlfect
in ASCII mode, rather than binary (as that adds linefeeds and otherwise 
corrupts the files.)

Good luck!
