Users of Windows who run IIS should be aware that it takes a system restart for IIS to re-read your
Path environment variable. This is apparently by design, as IIS is started by the Windows services
manager which inherits its environment once only, on system start.
For me, running PHP on Windows Server 2003 & IIS 6, any page request would hang as PHP searched
for and did not find libmysql.dll. My workaround (until the load was low enough to safely restart
the server) was to put libmysql.dll in /windows/system32.
