I just posted to http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=433565 (Converting POSIX format date/times to epoch seconds) a change to convert the WMIC boot time output. not sure if it would work for older systems but it works on Windows 7. requires use of the (not so great named) HTTP::Date package and a simple modification. code allows use of WMIC command to get the seconds at time of boot and time() can be used at that point to get the up time. GetTickCount was giving me a time (in ms) of 13 days up time on my system which has been up for 150+ days - the change to HTTP::Date is small and allowed me to report the correct up time.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
