Grant, did you try anything special with LWP as Jon suggested in an 
earlier message?

The lack of an asterisk next to LWP::UserAgent makes my suspicious.  The 
LWP modules provide a bunch of basic, important WWW stuff.

I'd suggest trying to install that separately, then redo your 
Bundle::InterchangeKitchenSink install:
perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::LWP'

I recently set up InterchangeKitchenSink on a new server and had 
problems similar to what you're experiencing, and installing LWP 
separately was the key to the problem.  It isn't necessarily the same 
situation for you, but that LWP::UserAgent ought to be there...
