<p>[coder45], taking a quick peek at the <code>ppm</code> commands yields the following results:
<code>
c:\>ppm help
Type 'help command' for more detailed help on a command.
Commands:

exit - exits the program

</code></p>
<p>So you may want to give the following a try:
<code>
c:\>ppm upgrade WWW::Search
</code></p>
<p><b>Update:</b> Hmm, that won't help you out because it will query the activeperl repository. To re-install from Randy's repository, try the following:
<code>
c:\>ppm install http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/WWW-Search.ppd -force
</code>
Note the <code>-force</code> option which will reinstall the package if you already have it installed.</p>
