Another similar approach would be to create a scriplet that contains the 
perl code you want to make available.  Just search for "Windows Script 
Components" and you should find enough information to get started. The 
only complaint I have about WSCs is that errors are not reported via COM 
exceptions, but rather as pop-up messages from the engine (and that only 
when  the <?component error="true"?> PI is in your scriptlet).
