You need to add the c:\perl\bin directory to you path.

If you don't understand what that is, I strongly suggest that you delete the perl you've installed (using the command `rd /q /s c:\perl`); then download and install the ActiveState .MSI installer which will set up the path (and many other configuration items) for you in a consistent and working fashion. You can obtain the .MSI installer from here. Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error. "Science is about questioning the status quo.
