Do the messages from the debugger tell you anything helpful?

Not really. I can follow the trail to where is calls $protocol->request() inside the eval, but that's not particularly informative.

I'd be interesting to see the contents of that pop-up. If you cannot cut&paste the contents, perhaps you could do a window grab (Alt-printscreen) and paste the image somewhere and post the link?

Given that this is LWP, which is a widely used module, if this were a general problem, you'd expect to be seeing widespread problems. That we aren't suggests it is a set-up problem with your machine.The most likely cause is that when you've installed or re-installed Perl, somehting has got left behind and is mismatched.I've seen this when doing an uninstall followed by an install to the same directory tree without physically blowing away the remnants of the original install (rd /s \<yourPerlPath>) manually first.

I'd try installing (AS, because it is what I'm familiar with) Perl into a completely new directory structure and try again.
