Is this Linux, Mac, or Windows?  Either way, try going into a XTerm shell
(Linux), Command Prompt (Windows), or whatever the Mac equivalent is and
typing ...
	perl --version
(If doesn't this get a meaningful reaponse in that a message about the perl
program not being found is output instead of the the version of PERL that
you have installed, then you will have to find the path to the PERL program
yourself and prepend it to the following command) and then try ...
	cpan XML::Simple
... which should install/reinstall the module.
