Error: no suitable installation target found for package Win32-GUI

Hi,

I'm using Perl 5.8.0 for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread build 806.
I'm trying the following procedure:

>set HTTP_proxy=http://my_proxy:3128
>ppm
ppm> search Win32::GUI
Searching in Active Repositories
1. Win32-GUI [0.0.558] Perl-Win32 Graphical User Interface
Extension
2. Win32-GUI [0.0.558] Perl-Win32 Graphical User Interface
Extension
3. win32-guidgen [0.02] Perl extension that generates GUID
strings.
4. Win32-GuiTest [1.3] Perl GUI Test Utilities
ppm> install 1
Package 1:
Error: no suitable installation target found for package Win32-GUI.
ppm> install 2
Package 2:
Error: no suitable installation target found for package Win32-GUI.

what am I doing wrong? is it a compatible problem? maybe the package
isn't compatible to my perl version, and if so what other packages can
I use instead (I need to connect to an ActiveX)

Thanks in advance.
