my solution was to create a local socket server (perl cookbook 'non-blocking
server' for win98) that sends and receives messages from other perl
processes.  the main routine starts up four [identical code - different
data] children which loop through the sites they're interested in and report
interesting results to the parent.  the parent is responsible for displaying
the information to the user.

(i bought another 128M ram chip so this would run.)
