I've read some vague advice of not supplying gdiplus.dll unless it's a win2k
system, but it might have meant that you shouldn't replace the original
gdiplus, but it's ok to have the program use the old one? Not sure, so
I make a link for users to download gdiplus from microsoft if they have
win2ks. When would msvcr71.dll be needed? I thought it's supplied with
all windows releases?
