In order to run your script without any such kind of issue, please follow the steps provided below. Earlier I too faced such a issue but after research in my PC I finally fixed it.
Note: the following steps is only suitable only for the Windows XP and with the IIS version 5.1:
Go to your Internet Information Services (IIS) page (Go Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Administrative tools -> Internet Information services)
Unfold Websites->Default Web site
Now right click on your website name (on which you are executing your script)
Select Properties
Select the tab Virtual Directory
In that page, select the option High (Isolated) under Application Protection, this option will remove the default timeout settings.
Now click on the button Configuration
Then select Process Options tab
Change the CGI Script Timeout value max value is 999999.
That’s it. You may now run your script without any issue.
