Dear Wise Monks, I have been trying for days to make a working standalone Windows executable with PAR and pp. My Perl script uses the module XML::LibXML and I am running windows XP with Strawberry Perl installed. I use the following command to create my script: 
>pp -C -M XML::LibXML -M XML::SAX -M XML::NamespaceSupport -M Math::Bi
+gInt::GMP -o idexx2who.exe Idexx2WhoNetCSV.pl

[download]
And I get the following error when I attempt to run the exe on a computer that does not have Strawberry Perl installed : 
Can't load 'C:\DOCUME~1\DOVELE~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\par-dovelewis\temp-800\
+e3Y9zPRBe_.dll' for module XML::LibXML: load_file:The specified modul

Thanks.
