Hello, When you compile your plugins with VC2008 or VC2005 you must supply the runtimes. Runtimes for those versions of VC are called VCREDIST.EXE and can be found either on your hard disk or on the installation DVD for Microsoft Visual Studio.
You need to run runtime setup (VCREDIST.EXE) only, you don't need to install entire VC. Only when you compile with Visual C++ version 6 (as all 32 bit plugins from AB) you don't need to supply the runtimes because they are already present in your operating system.
