A bit of shameless self promotion here.
For Perl newbies on Windows,
Perl Oasis may be useful. I certainly found it indispensible when UltraEdit was my editor of choise. It doesn't do anthing fancy, but it will get you a nice overview of the code you're working on and it's easy to browse documentation of relevant modules (your own and CPAN).
Sure, Emacs isn't an easy enough editor to "just start using", but once you do it's got 88.2% of that list covered. The most obvious things missing are semantic method completion and refactoring.
Oh, and speaking of "covered", the lateste release of
PerlySense can
highlight subroutine code coverage in your source code (I'll blog about it properly soon).
I use two Perl (sort of) IDEs

When using Vim I have implemented IDE like features using perl-support along with an autocomplete package, see the presentation I gave to SF.pm for details
When using Emacs (yep I use both) I use Perlnow along with an autocomplete package as well, see my svn emacs repo. Nothing too fancy, but gets the job done.
