Perl2Exe is commercial, command-line application that can build standalone executables from perl sources. It works by creating an executable that contains

• A standalone perl interpreter (that is capable of grokking perl 5.8.x)
• Your perl script and
• All perl modules that are referenced by your perl script.

pp - PAR Packager provides that same functionality, but is free.
