I don't know about the binary builds on the Wiki.  The preferred way is
to build from the source package (OpenAMQ-X.Y.zip).

The source build will function with:

- Visual C++ 6.0 (Visual Studio 6.0)
- Visual C++ 7.1 (Visual Studio 2003 .NET)

It will *not* currently work with Visual Studio 2005, Express or
Standard editions.  We are working on this.

Also, the build system on Windows is somewhat fragile and can get
confused if you have more than one version of Visual Studio installed on
the system. If this is the case, let us know and I'll try and help you.
This will also be fixed, but not for the next release.
