Go to msdn.microsoft.com and search for WMI. You'll find the WMI SDK and the WMI Tutorial.
Also see Marcin Policht's WMI Essentials for Automating Windows Management.
Your second challenge will be how to convert the VBScript examples from the above sources to Perl, using the Win32::OLE.
For a good basic coverage of Win32::OLE, see Dave Roth's Win32 Perl Programming: The Standard Extensions.
For selected examples of using Perl and WMI, see Dave Roth's Win32 Scripting: The Administrator's Handbook and David N. Blank-Edelman's Perl for System Administration.
