Uh, is that REMOTE_HOST EV valid?

Also, shouldn't you be using the localtime function for the time?

Hope this helps

open (FILE, ">>/opt/guide/www.popupmoney.com/popuplog/popup.txt")|| dienice("PLEASE CONTACT SUPPORT - Can't open: $FILE - $!\n");

You may wish to lock the file while your writing to it:

# LOCK THE OPEN FILE

flock(file,2);

# RESET THE FILE POINTER TO END OF FILE BEFORE WRITING

seek(file,0,2);

You can put the following subroutine at the bottom of
your script:

sub dienice {
my($msg) = @_;
print "ERROR\n";
print $msg;
exit;
}

Regards
