It looks like you might want to do a full uninstall/reinstall of ActivePerl and see if that clears it up.

Tim, Thanks for this information. I managed to install Win32::Lanman using PPM. But I still got an error message installing Win32::Service. I'm going to see how difficult Lanman is before racking my head with Win32::Service. But here is the error I got if anyone is interested. :) ************************************************* E:\>ppm PPM interactive shell (2.1.6) - type 'help' for available commands.
