Do you mean a web-based PHP script?  I think this would be dangerous,
especially in a shared environment.  Also most web hosts would cancel your
account if they found something like this running.  You would have no control
over the application and it would probably timeout with the script anyway. 
Not sure...

Having said that though, PHP does have system() and exec() commands to run
programs.
