Just to let everyone know, I solved this issue on my side. This is what I did.
Uninstalled ActiveState Perl 5.8.8.822 and deleted c:\perl\.
I reinstalled it and installed IO-stringy only.
*ppm install io-stringy in command prompt after install.
Rather than downloading the pre-compiled binaries available on the wiki tutorial, I used a newer build of the source. After that, it worked perfectly.
I hope everyone else has the same luck that I did.
