Did you add the lines:

DocumentRoot /path to your regular html files
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin//var/www/html/secure/statics/about/
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl

This goes right above what you posted.

It turns on the cgi script handler.

Then your scripts go in the
/var/www/html/secure/statics/about/ directory
