I'm trying to get my hands on the PAR for stand-alone executables (.exe). I thought I had read that it was a free download.
When I try to access http://par.perl.org/, I get the following... Can anyone help? Thanks....

Hi all,
I use Perl Dev Kit from ActiveState to develop my Perl executables (exe's).
I can't live without it. I coimbine Perl, Perl Dev Kit and Tk or Win32::GUI
to develop VB like apps. Use PerlTray to develop executables that run as
tray applications in MS Windows (little icons next to your clock with click
on popup menus). It also facilitates the creation of MSI setup modules in
Perl as well as the creation of NT services in perl. Very, very nice.
As I said - very handy - and I cannot live without it. It is avaliable for
trial download but requires a yearly license fee if you want to use it
permanently.

Hay, now that's handy.
I've had people send me Perl scripts to put on a web server and that's one
major headache finding all of the obscure modules that the author used.
