Actually, the error is telling you that it can't find Cookie.pm in any of 
your standard install locations.  (That is what @INC is.)  To find out the 
directories that are being included in @INC, (on a Unix or Windows machine, 
anyway) you would type `perl -V` at a command prompt.  I'm not exactly sure 
how you would do this on a Mac.

To find Cookie.pm, go to http://search.cpan.org/ and type in cookie in the 
modules search box.  that will tell you where it is, and the download will 
tell you how to install it on your Mac.  If the download doesn't, then the 
docs (or, perlmodinstall to be specific) will.

Hope this helps, and hope the weather is better down there than it is here.

A billion seconds ago Harry Truman was president.
A billion minutes ago was just after the time of Christ.
A billion hours ago man had not yet walked on earth.
A billion dollars ago was late yesterday afternoon at the U.S. Treasury.
