If Gtk2-Perl is too difficult to install, you could just install it once on your system and compile your Perl script into an EXE to distribute it to others... then the users don't need Gtk2-Perl, or even Perl itself, to be able to run your program.
If this is for Win32-only you could also consider Win32::GUI as the UI toolkit which would provide a more native look-and-feel to your app... or you can use Tk, which looks almost native on Win32 (there's only very small quirks about it that make it stand out from regular Win32 apps, such as the active button doesn't get a dotted-line border around it, and disabled text isn't sunken in but just solid grey, but for the most part it fits in on Windows). Perl/Tk is very easy to install on Windows, as is Win32::GUI.
For compiling your Perl app into an EXE, look into pp (PAR::Packer) for a free/open source solution, PerlApp from ActiveState for a commercial version (it's the best compiler I've ever used)... and then there's also perl2exe, also commercial, but I've had trouble getting it to work on some of my perl scripts.

I am not a gtk expert and i am not a native English speaker, but i have a few English corrections for you:
> The problem make me headache is:
Better: "Here is the problem that gives me headache:"
> gtk2-perl can't be installed by cpan or ppm on M$ easily.
Better: "from CPAN" or "using the CPAN shell".
> I don't have any try on embedding before.
Better: "I didn't try embedding before" or "I don't have any experience with embedding before."
Hope it helps.
