Salutations,
what compiler do you have? In order to compile MQ at this time you need either VC++6 or VC++7 (both available from MicroSoft). I have heard rumors that there is someone who is going to work on porting this version of MQ to Bloodshed so that others can compile it more easily...

Visual Studio C++ 6.0, i havent done any programming in a while though, do you need to create a workspace for it and everything?
