Because system() is a very common command.... Can anybody reproduce this? I put together a little advisory on my website, including version information and a debugger output (Drwatson): http://www.oliverkarow.de/research/ActivePerlSystemBOF.txt PS: Due to travel activity, i will not be able to respond to mails within the next 8 days!
