Decompiling PAR generated perl

feseha has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi Monks; First time here! A few months ago I compiled a perl script that I worked hard on into an exe file to hand it over to people that are not into programming. I seem to have deleted the source file and now I would like to update it without having to re-write all the code. I used the PAR utility on a strawberry perl to create the exe file. Can anyone help in decompiling it? Thanks in advance
