What the heck does this mean

[Fri Nov 06 16:00:22 2009] [error] [client 72.xx.xx.xx] operable program or batch file.\r, referer: http://www.mydomain.com/jukebox.jsx?view_queue=yes
[Fri Nov 06 16:00:27 2009] [error] [client 72.xx.xx.xx] 'ps' is not recognized as an internal or external command,\r, referer: http://www.mydomain.com/jukebox.jsx?view_queue=yes

huh ... 'ps' ... what's throwing that into the mix?
This was returning 503 Out of Resources, but that's literally impossible because it's worked fine for a long long time and the server has plenty of beef behind it.

Your script tries to call a external programm with name "ps.exe". But Windows can't find it in the %PATH%

That is what it sounds like to me. Problem is, there is no call to any ps.exe in the script. And this is the result of me trying to use the thing from a friends house which is why I know what it results in. There's no shell/spawn/system/fork/exec nor any ".exe" anywhere in the code. Confusing as hell.

I just opened that webpage. You take a look, if there that error with my IP ( 85.16.97.x)
Maybe you can put that source code on paste bin? I wonder which language it is? *.jsx
Perl,Phyton,PHP?

--edit--

You may also take a look into the access.log at that time. Maybe XSS caused by spyare or what ever?

Yes it's there and it only happens on connections from remote.
Till I track it down

// ps.exe
int main()
{
return 0;
}

Going to crank out a 2.0.64 and test w/o ps.exe in path.
