You still haven't installed it properly.

To clarify, it looks like the module includes compiled XS code. For modules like this, you can't just copy files from CPAN into the right place. You need to install the module properly. You should still be able to use 'ppm'.

    Installing to a consistent local folder is doable but requires a bit of research, mostly because of differences between Module::Build and ExtUtils::MakeMaker.

    At work I need to install a large number of modules locally as a non-root user and I quickly got tired of the manual build process. Behind the 'readmore' tags is the current version of a bash script I wrote to automate this process. After I clean it up and check for existing implementations I'll post it if people find it useful.

    Update - After having my first coffee of the day I re-read the OP and noticed the 'C:\'. Bash scripts typically aren't useful on windows, so ignore this post.
      But the rest of us can still use it. Thanks.
