I can't reproduce your issue on my Windows 7:

D:\progs\perl>YA_ARGV_test.pl foo bar baz
foo
bar
baz
foo
bar
baz

C:\>assoc .pl
.pl=Perl

C:\>ftype perl
perl="C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe" "%1" %*
[download]

Same perl, same Windows config (except that it's Windows 7 Professional).

Update: %PATHEXT% seems a red herring:

C:\>echo %pathext%
.COM;.EXE;.BAT;.CMD;.VBS;.VBE;.JS;.JSE;.WSF;.WSH;.MSC;.py;.pyw;.RB;.RB
+W

Note the absence of .PL.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
