What distribution of Perl are you using? Also, are you using 32-bit or 64-bit Perl.
If you are using Strawberry Perl, you should be able to be able to install modules just fine from CPAN.
Based on the info in your post, I'm going to assume that you are using ActiveState's ActivePerl. If you are using the 32-bit version, just use PPM to install MinGW and dmake from ActiveState's repository. Once those are installed, you can then install modules directly from CPAN.

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).
