I have done extensive tests with exec() and system() using PHP 4.2.0 - 4.3.0 under Win 98 (and 2000) and experience problems as well.

All result
in the exec() command hanging until the console is manually stopped.

Thank you for taking the time to report a problem with PHP.
Unfortunately you are not using a current version of PHP -- 
the problem might already be fixed. Please download a new
PHP version from http://www.php.net/downloads.php

If you are able to reproduce the bug with one of the latest
versions of PHP, please change the PHP version on this bug report
to the version you tested and change the status back to "Open".
Again, thank you for your continued support of PHP.

Using PHP 4.3.6 (as CGI or ISAPI module) under Win XP and Win 2003 server (IIS 6.0 or Apache 2), the exec() and system() commands hang until the forked process is finished. For Win 2003 server sometime it gets the CGI Error - The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers.

As the php manual says, I used a output redirection to be sure not to hang up but it hangs up the same till the process is finished.
