Based on this (and your previous post), You are trying to add SSL support for Windows. The easiest way to do this is to install ActiveState Perl (which I guess you have) and to use the ppm facility to install Crypt::SSLeay from the University of Winnepeg repository. You need to do the following:

1. ppm3
2. rep add Winnepeg http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/
3. search Crypt-SSLeay
4. install Crypt-SSLeay

pay attention to the bit that asked about downloading the two dlls. You may need to relocate the DLLs in your PATH in order to get this to work. The DLLs can be manually downloaded from http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/scripts/ if you don't get it right first time.

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
