You only need one information: CPAN is near you. Get the most recent
versions of perl and all modules from there. Help to save Singapoor:
tell the administration of the site where you got the old version
from to delete it. CPAN in the far east is:

    Asia
        Japan
            ftp://ftp.lab.kdd.co.jp/lang/perl/CPAN/
        Taiwan
            ftp://dongpo.math.ncu.edu.tw/perl/CPAN/
    Australasia
        Australia
            ftp://coombs.anu.edu.au/pub/perl/
            ftp://ftp.mame.mu.oz.au/pub/perl/CPAN/
        New Zealand
            ftp://ftp.tekotago.ac.nz/pub/perl/CPAN/

Current perl is 5.002, current libwww-perl is 5b9.

Good luck,
