CGI App time-out with Perl and Guestbook version 1.51

I'm running an IIS5 web server with Perl, IIS is set up correctly, but I keep on getting CGI time-outs when trying to post a new msg to my guestbook...ne1 got ne ideas??

I've checked the guest_id and page_id files, IIS user has got Read/Write/Execute access to it, which is needed. What does the permissions on the guestbook.pl file have to be?

The url's in the .pl file are correct and I've read the readme.txt file on what changes to make...still, the application times out every time...please HELP?!!!

Thanks guys!
