The installer text is wrong (will fix).  It used to be right but it 
seems that C++ libraries are compiler version dependent and with 
people using anything from VC++ 6.0 to Visual Studio 2010, it is not 
possible to supply a library which works for all.

It is best to build the library from source.  It is usually pretty 
easy to do so.
