maybe nothing :-))
Sometimes an install is just a .pm file. however you should have gotten a
set of install messages.

With a slow connection you probably want to download zip files from
ActiveStates directory at
http://www.activestate.com/ppmpackages/5.005/zips/
Then unzip it in a temporary directory locally. This should give you a .gz
and a .ppd. From a console box cd to the temp dir and go....
ppm install Tk-JPEG.ppd
ppm, aside from the download part, mostly just does version checking and
puts .pm and/or .dll files in the right place. ppm is good magic when its
working well but a bad connection can throw it off.
I'm not using Tk so can't help more specifically.
good luck,
