Sounds like the perl mime type is messed up.  %1 means "the first argument
passed on the command line.  The mime type default action mapping for
perl files in windows will look something like this:
	c:\perl\perl.exe %1

When you double-click a .pl file, windows runs it as if it were run from
the command line like:
    	c:\perl\perl.exe file.pl
by substituting the file name for %1.

Check your quoting etc, in the mime type mappings.
