Image::Size wants Test::Harness, but there's not enough error message
in your email to see what the problem is with the installation of
Test::Harness.  Could you try to install Test::Harness, and paste the
complete output (including the installation command you used) to a
pastebin service somewhere?

There should be a copy of the File::Copy module with Strawberry Perl
5.18.1.1.  If not, or if the version that comes with 5.18.1.1 is too
old, then there's a 5.24.0.1 release of Strawberry Perl that you could
upgrade to, strangely enough.

Thanks,

Brian
