Fake Cron

If you want some CGIs on your site to run automatically at certain times, and you don''t have access to Cron, then this CGI will help you by imitating Cron. You just need to load the CGI in an image tag (instructions provided with script) on a page of your site that is visited at least once a minute. Fake Cron will still run CGIs that it missed, so it''s not that bad if wasn''t run for more than 1 minute. The LWP::UserAgent Module is required (most server''s already have this, if not, ask your web host to install it).
