Install with ppm. The only problem with Crypt-CBC is it's reliance upon 'Crypt-IDEA' ( which won't build on Windows ). All other pre-requisites seem to be available via ppm - though the version of 'Crypt-DES' fails the tests. I ended up building 'Crypt-DES' from CPAN source and that version tested ok. I can (perhaps - see below) send it to you if you want. Everything else is available from Active State. 'Crypt-CBC' requires no compiling and can be installed by copying to the appropriate place. Just what affect the absence of 'IDEA' would have on the performance of CBC, I don't know. It may depend on what you are wanting to do. I can't email you btw ( my ISP's mail server is on a spam hitlist) - unless you have another email address that is not so particular about where the email originates.
