This version was built under Windows XP. Recent versions are built under Windows 7. I don't really like an Idea to provide msvcr90.dll with X2Go Client. It seems, that binaries built under Windows XP working without problem also on Windows 7. But I don't also like Idea to give up build environment that Mike built and install WindowsXP instead. I don't really know what is better. Any ideas? regards, Alex -- Oleksandr Shneyder Dipl.
