Personally I never got Igloo to work (ehh, it took effort and i didn't want
to even try). Instead look for TortoiseCVS. It integrates with windows
explorer and the folder view on the resource tab through right-click menus
so you can check in and out straight from HS+/CFS.
CVS has some issues, for example, with binary files. If you import an image
and expect to be able to export it, you're in for a surprise.
ugh, what surprise? CVS can handle binaries, albeit not elegantly.

This is why
there is Subversion (SVN). Version 1.0 came out a few weeks ago, and it's
meant to be a replacement for CVS. It's so similar, however, that you can
find TortoiseSVN, a cockeyed clone of TortoiseCVS.

I know others have complained about VSS, but I've had nothing but good
luck
with it, and found it to be the easiest solution.
CVS is free, and can be integrated w/ HS+ if you use Igloo (just google
it).
That's what I currently use and it works ok.
