An alternative that I have used before when PPM was not working is to use the CPAN shell

C:\perl -MCPAN -e shell
cpan> help
...[show help information]...
cpan> m /mail::find/
...[list of available modules from CPAN]...
[download]

It can be a bit of a pain to set up on a win32 box, but it can be a viable alternative to PPM when the repositories do not have the modules you need or they don't have the latest modules. If you need to build the modules you will have to have access to a compiler. GCC in the cygwin distribution should work, and it's free <http://www.cygwin.com/>.
