If I understood the discussion surrounding KDE and the linking to the incompatible qt licensed stuff, it is my understanding that all you have to do is add an extra clause to your licensing text. Something like:
"This is under the GPL, with the exception that it may legally be linked to Microsoft proprietary VB libraries." Don't take my word for it though, you better off checking the gnu.org site or asking somebody there. We are generally not to fond of IP law around here... On another note, while I appreciate any Freenet program, I once spent a whole summer coding in VB and WHAT ARE YOU THINKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
