I have numerous errors that I am trying to work my way through, but the one that I am trying to figure out right now is:
Permission denied at C:/Perl/lib/File/Find.pm line 450
(I am sure there are several other errors the monks can point out as well :-) )

Find.pm is in that folder and I have full access to it. I found this but I don't know enough to figure out if it is truly related or not. I am using PPM 3.0.1 if that helps....

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks so much!
