Many thanks for all the responses.  I still seem to be having
this same problem mentioned above.  From the CPAN shell, I get
the following error when I type install Bundle::libnet

 cpan> install Bundle::libnet
 Can't install Bundle::libnet, don't have an associated bundle
 file. :-(
  at (eval 8) line 1717

I'm rather confused now.  How can I clear this up?

TIA!
