My latest attempt at installing (after reading this today) was to open a CMD window and verify that the cpan utility can find it. It does - "Chart::Clicker". When I issue the command "install Chart::Clicker" a bunch of stuff (I know...not a great description) happens. Here's what happens just before it freezes:

CPAN.pm: Going to build B/BB/BBB/File-NFSLock-1.20.tar.gz Set up gcc environment - 3.4.5 (mingw-vista special r3) Checking if your kit is complete... Looks good Writing Makefile for File::NFSLock cp lib/File/NFSLock.pm blib\lib\File\NFSLock.pm C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe "-Iblib\arch" "-Iblib\lib" File-NFSLock.spec.PL File-NFSLock.spec BBB/File-NFSLock-1.20.tar.gz C:\Perl\site\bin\dmake.exe -- OK Running make test C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" "test_harness(0, 'blib\lib', 'blib\arch')" t/*.t t/100_load.t ...... ok t/110_compare.t ... ok t/120_single.t .... ok t/200_bl_ex.t ..... 2/22

That's it. I do have the entire output from the install command. It is at: http://www.blandranch.net/Files/InstallLog.txt
