Infinite Loops in CGI (Windows)?

Hello,

out of curiosity I just tried putting an infinite Loop into a CGI
Skript (served under Windows 2000 with Apache2).

What suprised me a bit is that python kept on using 99% of the CPU,
even after I stopped Apache. Also I couldn't stop the process from the
Windows Task Manager, I only got 'Access denied' (I am Administrator).

Is there any other way to clean up than rebooting the machine? Is
there a way at all to make shared hosting feasible?

Thanks


Bjoern
