[newbie] Perl for 7.1

[CastleKidd]

Im trying to get my perl scripts to work so I can work on the on my system 
instead of having to play with the upload and download on windows crap. I 
cant get it to execute the perl scripts though. They are called *.cgi, but I 
know i cant the the *.pl's working either. Can anyone help me?

Thanks for all the help so far!
