No, you cannot add additional Perl Modules to the server. However, we have installed most common Perl modules.
The process to find your account's installed Perl modules differs, based on the type of hosting account you have. For more information, see What type of hosting account do I have?
NOTE: Only our Deluxe, Premium, Unlimited, and Ultimate Linux hosting accounts support CGI.
