It *looked* right - mostly, but in the end, there was ... something ... 
wrong about the permissions.
If I went into the C:\Perl folder and checked permissions, it said that 
'everyone' had 'full permissions', but the individual checkboxes were 
greyed out. It turns out the the whole C:\Perl folder was inheriting 
permissions from it's parent folder, and once I broke this relationship 
and then created a new permissions setting ( everyone with full 
permissions ... but with the individual checkboxes 'active' instead of 
greyed out ), it started working properly.

Strange. I've set up a number of Win32 boxen like this now, and some of 
them have been for users with less than 'Power User' status. I suppose 
it might be something up with the ActiveState build ( latest 5.8.7 ) 
which created the C:\Perl folder - this is the 1st time I've used this 
particular version.

Anyway, thanks muppet :)
