And I almost never use modules. While I can guarantee that 99.999 percent of my scripts will be used on Windows, I can't guarantee that the modules will be available.

This is bad. Very very bad. I use windows 100% of the time, and ive never encountered this problem. Use ppm, use CPAN, whatever, but definately use modules. You will come to regret not doing so one day. And if anybody professional looks into your code your reputation will suffer.
