  14. I notice that MicroSoft has a wininet.dll library which allows application
  15. developers to 'internet enable' their software.
  16. ( see http://www.microsoft.com/intdev/inttech/inet.htm )
  17.  
  18. Is there a version of perl out there which takes advantage of this library?
  19.  
  20. I'd like to use Perl to retrieve URLs from my PC running Windows 95
  21. from behind a firewall using a http_proxy.
  22.  
  23. Has anyone already done this with Perl on a Windows 95 PC?
  24.  
  25. Thanks!
