Forgive me for a very novice request for help.  I am new to this
list and also to mostly everything in PERL.  I tried my best on the
related web sites, but couldn't find the information I need, so
I would like someone to point me to the right place, or help me
with my problem.

I installed PERL 5.6.1.633 on a Windows2000 machine.  Even though
I haven't tried it with anything really complicated, it seems to
have succeeded.

Then I downloaded POE.ppd file and typed "ppm install POE.ppd"
in a DOS window.  After the prompt came back I looked at the
..packlist file, but it was 0 bytes long.  When I run the poe-math3.pl
file that is on the web I get a "Can't locate POE.pm" message.
I tried several things I could think of, but no success.  I
searched the entire disk for POE.pm and it is not there.  I noticed
that if I "unzip" the .tar.gz file it is in there, so I suspect
that the installer doesn't succeed with the uncompression step.

Could someone please tell me what I need to do to install POE
correctly?

Thanks,
