I'm absolutly clueless for modules ... i've looked at a few but didn't
grasp the logic behind them ... i need like a perl modules for dummys
... yeah that would help.

Or anything documents, books, websites you could recommend.

In general, I recommend just reading that module's documentation. For
standard modules (like File::Find that I recommended), just go to your
command prompt and type:
perldoc File::Find
For CPAN modules (like IO::All that David recommended), go to
http://search.cpan.org and search for that module. Note that you will
have to install any CPAN modules before you can use them. Frequently,
this is as simple as going to your command prompt and typing:
cpan IO::All
but be sure to read some faqs and documentation on installing modules
for special cases, such as:
perldoc perlmodinstall
perldoc -q lib

If you have any questions about the usage of various modules, (after
you have read that module's documentation) feel free to post here, or
in comp.lang.perl.modules
