I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.

Re: DBD Installation Fails in Windows XP
Simple reason is you cant' as Oracle does no allow third parties to redistribute their binaries. So Activestate will not serve them up anymore. Have a look at the README.win32.txt found with the distribution. It has a good section on how to install DBD Oracle from scratch, There is a allot of downloading but it is relatively straightforward. by the way you would be much better of using perl.dbi.users list as nobody reads this one except for me
