Hi Sean If the PPM on SourceForge is the one I built for Aldo (I think it is) it was built and tested on Windows 2000 with ActiveState Perl 5.6.1 build 630. I have tested the PPM on Win XP but not 95. One question, did you do ppm remove Win32-GUI before you installed the new version ? If not it m

Hi The Win32::GUI 0.558 PPD was created by me (I'm the Packager you know ;-) ). I also managed to get ActiveState to update their PPM server with it so you can get the current version from there. (It does seem to work from inside a firewall, you just need to set the environment variables right.)
