No. It's too late. The permissions ahve to be set before you try to 
execute the script. How to do that depends on your access to the 
server. If you have a telnet access (or SSH or whatever, simply 
something where you can enter commands) you can use

	chmod 0755 counter.cgi

on the prompt (command line).

Or you can have a script that does this for you. Or ...
