As subject says, my ActivePerl problem was corrected. However, right now I'm having a new one. I run winmysqladmin.exe, run world.exe (loads and connects fine), run Boot5Zones.bat (here comes the problem) and all 5 zone.exe's start only to go through the loading process and close before they attempt to connect to my world.exe. The one thing that annoys me is I can't see if any error is printed out or what exact [Status] line it stops on because the .exe doesn't stay open long enough (it flies by too quick then closes imeadiately.)

Heres some info:

LoginServer.ini:
[LoginServer]
loginserver=eqlogin1.eqemulator.net
loginport=5997
worldname=TNT
worldaddress=208.253.96.90
locked=false

[WorldServer]
Defaultstatus=20
Unavailzone=

[LoginConfig]
ServerMode=Standalone
ServerPort=5999
UplinkAddress=
UplinkPort=
UplinkAccount=
UplinkPassword=

Boot5Zones.bat (Yes all the REMs are included in my file too):

@echo off

if NOT exist spells_en.txt goto NOSPELL

exit
cls

:NOSPELL
echo You did not copy the spells_en.txt from your everquest directory to this one. Please do so or zones will crash on startup.

I am running the 0.5.2 PERL EQEmu if you were wondering. Any ideas why my zone.exe's won't stay active?

The build of eqemu you have was built with perl58, which unless you're going to compile it yourself, you have to have. Check for mirrors on the perl install, it should be working.
