I have a file that works on Windows 7 64 bit, and another on Windows XP 32 bit. I do not remember where I got the answers those number of years ago. I will simply upload the Net::NTP files that work.
On Windows 7 64 bit, install Perl as usual, then install Net::NTP as usual, then copy the NTP_mhn.pm file to NTP.pm, overwriting the original.
My thanks to whoever gave me the fix.

=head1 NAME
Net::NTP - Perl extension for decoding NTP server responses
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Net::NTP qw(get_ntp_response);
my %response = get_ntp_response();
=head1 ABSTRACT
All this module does is send a packet to an NTP server and then decode
the packet recieved into it's respective parts - as outlined in
RFC1305 and RFC2030.
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This module exports a single method (get_ntp_response) and returns an
associative array based upon RFC1305 and RFC2030. The response from
the server is "humanized" to a point that further processing of th
information recieved from the server can be manipulated. For example:
timestamps are in epoch, so one could use the localtime function to
produce an even more "human" representation of the timestamp.
=head2 EXPORT
get_ntp_response(<server>, <port>);
This module exports a single method - get_ntp_response. It takes the
server as the first argument (localhost is the default) and port to
send/recieve the packets (ntp or 123 bu default). It returns an
associative array of the various parts of the packet as outlined in
RFC1305. It "normalizes" or "humanizes" various parts of the packet.
For example: all the timestamps are in epoch, NOT hexidecimal.
