in thread perl -MCPAN on windows: Should I even try?

As far as I know, Microsoft's C/C++ compiler only comes with Visual C++ and Visual Studio. I don't know if it makes a difference which version you get (6 -vs- .NET), but I think both will work.

Class::DBI::mysql uses DBD::mysql, so if you want Class::DBI::mysql, you need to install both.
