well, it doesn't look like that module is part of the Active State repository. My suggestion (per the ppm documentation ) would be to add cpan as a repository to your PPM, that way you would have access to ALL modules and not just the modules that Active State deems necessary.

Regards,

Jeff

Those site scraper modules tend to break easy. If orkut has changed anything recently then that 3 year old script may not even work anymore, but you can certainly try it and see. Worse comes to worse just copy and paste the source code to you local PC and use it with the "lib" pragma. See the perl documentation on your PC in the activestate folder about how to use "lib".
