usually it is perl "path_to_program1.pl" If the path has spaces you will have to use the quotes.

So the interpreter's extention should be .pl? I downloaded active perl so if anyone knows can you tell where the interpretor is in the folder that was installed by activeperl?

I don't think you can run it in windows, there a a few dependencies, for example e-mailing stuff, they use a unix utility. just get a cheap computer, and install Ubuntu on it, or use your current computer and dual boot with ubuntu. I did that because I was sick of remoting into a linux server for a college class.
http://video.stumbleupon.com/#p=f8bn85t8kr that should be the one. It is very helpful, and the process is easy and not very dangerous. running perl in windows will be a pain in the.. ahh butt, just go with running it on ubuntu, which is very easy.

i dont know for sure but seriously, boot with a knoppix live cd. you dont have to install ANYTHING, just boot from the cd, and run your perl scrips in there.
__________________i would install ubuntu but you said you dont want to, therefore the knoppix suggestion

You'll have to install Python in Windows.

You don't have to install anything - just download and install the Active Perl like you have. Browse to the directory your program is located, and type in the following in quotes, replacing your program name -> "perl your_name_here" and let it run. Assuming it has no compilation issues, you should have a running Perl program. And you don't have to have Linux to run Perl. Perl is like Java in that it is platform-independent.
