Urb,
I recently installed ActivePerl (http://www.activestate.com/ActivePerl/) on my
NT server with IIS 4.0 and found the process painless (I too was mostly a Perl
UNIX guy). I think you could probably figure out how to do this yourself if you
have a spare hour or two.
I've appended my oh-so exciting "hello world" test script (test.pl). There's
also an ActiveState Perl for ISAPI plug-in for IIS that is supposed to make
things faster than running just regular perl (the extension becomes .plx for
this).
You don't have to put the "#!/usr/bin/perl" line at the top of the file like
you do for UNIX (perl is invoked based on the file extension). One big place
where NT and UNIX perl seem to differ is when you call out to the operating
system (with system or the backquote syntax). I've found the O'Reilly Learning
Perl for Win32 helpful in that respect.

print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
print "<html><body>";
for ($i=0;$i<1000;$i++) {
print "hello world";
}
print "</body></html>";
