Perl scripts need a .PL extension to be run.

Do you mean you mapped HTM and HTML to the perl.dll or Perl ISAPI
filter? That's not smart, since now you can't run HTM or HTML files,
everything would have to be a Perl script.
Plus, if you didn't remove the default HTM/HTML mapping you would
further break your system.
