I know nothing of this "rc4 perl program" that you have.
Assuming it *is* a perl file then you would need to make it executable by
associating its extension with the perl interpreter.
Look for something like "associating extensions" under "file types" in
Windows Help.

If it's not a perl file, could you tell us what it is, and how it's related
to perl ?

Cheers,
Rob
