perlis.dll is a permanent binding of the perl interpreter to the internal api 
of some w2k web-servers (for exampe the IIS). The advantage is to avoid loading 
the interpreter perl.exe for each page call. You may think of mod_perl for the 
apache, which binds the perl interpreter as some lib to the apache (and caches 
the the compiled perl scripts too, which perlis.dll does not).

Do you have tried to use perl.exe instead of perlis.dll?
