visual studio .net setup: I have PSDK April 2005 (Windows Server 2003 SP1) installed and
also:
Visual Studio 2005
Visual Studio 6.0 (+sp6)

(1) I gather that, based on the PSDK docs, the libs in that PSDK cannot be used with VS 6
for C++ because of the compiler /GS switch used to build them ?

(2) Are the bins, libs and includes included with VS 2005 up to date, so that the PSDK April 2005
bin, lib and includes don't need to be specified in the config. options?

(3) Apart from the buffer-overflow code injected into compiled code with the default /GS switch,
since it links to libs that have /GS switch also, does this impact the ability of this
compiled
code to execute on older OS that have older dlls? or is this just a link issue?

Hi Mitch,

This is not a VS setup & installation issue. You can post it to our
