I believe the CPAN version is an older (much older) version than was on Dave Roth's site. If anyone wants it, I can email a version that works with ActiveState ActivePerl 5.6.1 (all builds that I know of). Just email me directly.

I don't have a C compiler, but I get the impression looking at this download that the module is already compiled. I did see the file adminmisc.pll and thought maybe it was supposed to be *.dll so I changed the extension and the error that it can't locate a loadable object for Win32::AdminMisc went away but the program doesn't really run....just returns be to the prompt immediately without any warnings (I'm running use strict;) ...doesn't even print a print statement that's on the first line....any clues?
