Do a search in the RDS archives for CGI. You'll get several for both Win and 
Linux. Be aware that you'll probably need better web server software than 
comes with Windows. Xitami is one which works ok. Apache is fine.

I wouldn't want to put anything but the  PD version there - it would be too 
easy to copy. Besides, there wouldn't be much benefit from having the 
licensed version - the error messages would still be local files, and you 
couldn't use trace.  Anyway, 90% of the problems you will have with CGI 
have nothing to do with the programming language, anyway;  most will be  
problems with paths and permissions.
