I know some servers only let you run PERL files out of the cgi-bin. Chmod 777 can also be bad news for PERL files depending on the server setup. I have the spell.pl file in the cgi-bin and the directory and file are chmodded to 755. Of course, all of this is one of the reasons I much prefer PHP to PERL.
Fortunately, this very cool hack works fine.
