may help you

because they take up a lot of resources and can slow servers down, mostly by badly written scripts.

I'm sure there was a thread about it some months ago (probably a year ago) but can't find it

Really? I've never heard that before... Why's that then?

free-php.net and scriptme.com both have polls that look decent and have good reviews. Check them out to see if they meet your needs.

I'd be happy with either a flat file or MySQL.

I downloaded a few from Hotscripts, they seem to be reasonable to set up. Did you want a flat file or MySQL system? Both exist.

I'm actually "hosting" the poll for a friend who was getting far too frustrated to deal with it herself any longer. But I might consider the hosted option and do the setup for her simply because the script I am currently using is working great until the time comes to display the results.

would you consider a hosted option?

there used to be oodles kicking around, but I can't put my finger on one lately.

http://www.hotscripts.com/cgi-bin/search.cgi?bool=AND&query=poll&catid=2 has quite a few that you install yourself. Check for scripts with high ratings and a lot of votes.
