Usually there is no need to compile modules from source for Active State 
Perl on Win32 platforms as this is exactly what PPM is for. However in 
this instance it looks like you might need to follow King Seth's 
instructions to install the Crypt-SSLeay module. As far as I can see, 
even though the Build Status page ( 
http://ppm.activestate.com/BuildStatus/5.8-C.html ) says that the 
Crypt-SSLeay module was succesfully built for windows, there is no 
corresponding ZIP in the 8xx/Windows ppm repository. ( 
http://ppm.activestate.com/PPMPackages/zips/8xx-builds-only/Windows/ ). 
Can anyone else explain why this is the case?

As for LWP::UserAgent, it is part of the libwww-perl package which is a 
core module in Perl 5.8 (i.e. it should already be installed).

Cheers,
Sam
