Interesting, as I got:

D:\Home> ppm install http://www.orth.net/perl/packages/win32-adminmi
sc.ppd
PPM::PPD::init: not a PPD and not a file:
<HTML><HEAD>
....

ITYM www.roth.net.

use warnings;

is preferable because it allows you to turn selected warnings on/off in
lexical scopes.

You need the latest MS C runtime in your path.

More information can be found at

http://support.microsoft.com/dllhelp/default.aspx?fid=13475

My guess is, you need to install the .NET framework to get the runtime.

On the other hand, you may want to Google for MSVCR70 and see if you can
find more information.
