Just write the code, that you would run to delete the old records, then save that code as a .vbs file.
Add that as a scheduled task, and the windows scripting host will take care of it for you.<pre id=code><font face=courier size=2 id=code></assuming you're using NT></font id=code></pre id=code>Of course, if you're in a shared hosting evironment, you won't be able to do that (unless you're blessed with a great ISP). so you'll have to just run the script manually.
