Well, OK, I'll treat you like a retard.

Hey retard! Why don't you tell us some useful information about the problems you're having? "I have been unsuccessful"? What does that mean, you retard?

:-)

There are two good ways to install a module. 1. download the tar.gz file (I assume you're on some kind of Unix) and...

tar zxvf File.tar.gz cd File perl Makefile.PL make make test [optional] su [enter your password] make install exit
2. if you have the CPAN module installed
su [enter your password] perl -MCPAN -e shell
This will get you to a nice interactive shell where you can type install Module::Name

If this doesn't help, rephrase your question to be a bit more helpful.
