Hi Mark,

I downloaded ActivePerl yesterday and it seems to work, though I haven't
tested any scripts with it yet.  I thought it might help to check what was
downloaded.  I downloaded my copy from
http://www.activestate.com/Products/Download/Get.plex?id=ActivePerl&a=e
After reading the documentation I downloaded InstMsi.exe first  and then
ActivePerl-5.6.1.631-MSWin32-x86.msi after that.
