Installing Perl's mysql-dbd module without internet access

I need to be able to read/write to a mysql database using Perl. On all previous servers I have been able to use ppm-shell do download and configure the DBI module for mysql (mysql-dbd I think). However on one particular server, I don't have internet access.

Is there an easy way to get this installed? I'm on Windows 2008 Server by the way. I'm not brilliant at Perl either so if anyone can give some easy to understand instructions I'd really appreciate it

Thanks
