multiple instances of php.exe

Hi guys,

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this but I've looked
everywhere else.

I am running php on win2k in cgi mode.

My server keeps locking up and refusing to serve pages. There are multiple
instances of php.exe, up to 40 of them, in task manager. This can last from
a couple of minutes to an hour. If I restart w3svc then this fixes the
problem until the next time it starts.

I use webquota connecting to an access database to control access to the
site.

The pages are generated from a different access database.

The problem has only started over the last couple of months but the code
hasn't changed in years.

Has anyone experienced anything like this or have any ideas how to solve it?

Thanks,
Matt.
