Even if the system environment has a variable set, you can set you're own copy of it for each user which can make the default search path to find perl which ever location you choose. Keep in mind that if you run ASSP as a service, you'll have to define the account which the service uses, otherwise it will use the System account and therefore only the system wide copy of the environment.
