The mssql backend is only used on Linux systems in combination with the FreeTDS library. On Windows systems, the "official" way to interface a MS SQL Server is using the ODBC driver. The Windows binaries are contributed by Mariano and not created by myself. Currently, he seems to be very busy, so no Windows binaries for 1.4.5 were built up to now and I don't know if he will do so in the future.
