http://search.cpan.org/search?dist=CPAN is the link to the source.
you can either search for perl modules using cpan from the command line, or http://search.cpan.org after compiling and installing cpan, installing a bundle from the command line is as easy as # cpan cpan> install DBI it compiles and installs automatically for you, including any dependencies needed for each perl module package. hope this helps.
