It doesn't hang, it's waiting for input.
Other notes:
1. A backup file given .org as its extension? Weird. Most people use
.bak.
2. You haven't used /g, so you'll won't replace globally, you'll
just replace the first occurence.
3. You haven't used /i, so you'll won't ignore case.
The above suggests:
perl -wpi.bak -e
"s@/cgi-bin/forum_idx.pl@/fakecgi/fakeforum_idx.pl@gi" foo*
to globally search and replace, ignoring case, in files whose name
begins with "foo" in the current directory, and creating backups of
the files (pre-change) called foo*.bak
