The 'not' which is confusing the compiler is on the first line. Change to:
#!C:\Perl\Bin\Perl.exe
Furthermore, you're missing a backslash on the second "\d":
> $posted_information=~ s/%([\dA-Fa-f][dA-Fa-f])/pack ("C", hex ($1))/eg;
^
which could be changed to (to avoid duplication):
$posted_information=~ s/%([\dA-Fa-f]{2})/pack ("C", hex ($1))/eg;
