Hi, i've never done anything like this before and was wondering the negative implications of such.

I have a SFTP script that uses SSH to aid in the security handshake with a remote server. I'm looking for files on the remote server. I'm doing this via an ASP page in iis6.

I was wondering how i can get windows to fire up the ASP page every five minutes and what negative effcts are derived from Cron Jobs
 
Your best bet would be to write a .NET app to call the web page. If you try to do this directly in a web browser you will end up with a copy of the browser running every five minutes.

You could then schedule the .NET app to run every 5 minutes.

The app could be written in any language obvsouly, .NET is integrated the tighest with the OS.
