oh thanks, i thought that even from download.com, they will redirect me to Microsoft download page...

Anyway, does this update solve the linker problem ( security problem ) with MS Visual C++ 6.0 ?
I'm unaware of the problem, but it begs the question: Why are you using VC 6?

Microsoft has released Visual Studio Express 2008 for free.

Wow, you must be working for the same silly company I did awhile back... I wonder.

They refused to update their engine to use anything but Oct 2004 and forced us to use VC6 as their crappy code wouldnt compile on 2003 or later.

I wonder....
You company also needed to bypass genuine validation?

Grab Visual Studio Express 2008, and the LATEST DirectX SDK. Why are you fiddling around with old technology?
