[Omaha.pm] Debugging running Perl code on Windows.

I'm trying to debug hung perl processes running on a Windows 2003 server.
It is running the pre-compiled ActiveState perl, and the perl program runs
once every five minutes processing e-mail from a remote POP3 server.

Occasionaly the perl interperter gets stuck and will wait forever.  Does
anyone know of a way to hook into the running perl process under Windows
to see what it is really waiting for?  If it helps, I'm using the Open
Perl IDE (http://open-perl-ide.sourceforge.net/).  My last resort is to
put a ton of debug logging into the script and let it run but I'd rather
not add that overhead...
