in reply to Advice for installing on Win32

Don't forget http://www.indigostar.com/ whose Perl comes with some nice extras (including Apache!), it is easier to install (than ActivePerl), and doesn't have nearly as restrictive of a license and yet still works with ActiveState PPM modules.

Note: Change the two Apache config files after you install as Apache comes with typical lame "demo" pages and the config files give access to the world so running Apache without some reconfig could open your box up to security problems.

    There's also the SiePerl distribution from Siemens that has no licence restrictions at all and lots of included modules.
