How do I install this package using ppm?



I searched CPAN and found this:

WWW::Yahoo::Groups

which I want to install. I ran ppm (for ActiveState) and entered:

ppm> install WWW::Yahoo::Groups

ppm says "Searching for 'WWW::Yahoo::Groups' returned no results. Try
a broader search first."

What is going on here? Why can't ppm find it? Is there another way I
can install it? I have the archive downloaded locally. Can I install
from that archive instead?, if so how.

This does not work:
ppm> install D:\_Install\Perl\WWW-Yahoo-Groups-1.91.tar.gz

nor does this show the package I want.
ppm> search yahoo

.
