Hi People! I hope all of you are doing well today.

Anyways, I've spent the past 7-8 hours trying to install LWP::UserAgent and a SSL to use with it, and after NUMEROUS times of installing and uninstalling different versions of Activestate Perl and libwww-perlXXX, etc. I was finally able to get LWP::UserAgent working properly under ActivePerl 5.8.0 (I am current running Windows XP and IIS).

I tried installing Net::SSLeay and Crypt::SSLeay numerous times also on different versions on Perl but am getting the same errors (below). I have the BINARY distribution of OpenSSL installed in my D:\Perl\OpenSSL folder (executable 'openssl.exe' is in D:\Perl\OpenSSL\bin).

The errors I get while installing Net::SSLeay (Ver 1.21) are -

(PMAKE)
