Code that runs at regular intervals - How?

[Bobby Edward]

I have code on my website that has to run every 15 minutes. How do you
suggest I do this? What's the easiest way?

What's the code doing? It's not really in the nature of a website per
se to perform operations according to a schedule. Depending on what
the task is, you'd probably find it easier to put it in a windows
service - but without knowing what you're trying to achieve, it's hard
to say.

Thanks everyone!

The code notifies people of various things via email.

Since there's alot of processing involved in the logic I wanted to only run
it occassionally so that the server wasn't bogged down.
