   Step 3: Install Visual C++
 *********************************************************************
 
-  - Choose whether to use Visual C++ v7.0 or v6.0
-    As of 5/19/03, it's better to use Visual C++ v7.0 
-    (which is a synonym for Visual C++ .NET)
-  
-  *** TO INSTALL VC++ 7.0 ***
-
-  - Run P:\msvc7\vc7_setup\SETUP.EXE, or install from the MSDN 
+  - MS Visual C++ requires MS Internet Information Server so this must
+    be installed prior to installing MSVC.
+  - Click on Start->Settings->Control Panel
+  - Click on Add/Remove Programs
+  - On the left side of the window, select Add/Remove Windows Components
+  - Check the box next to Internet Information Services (IIS)
+  - Click the Details button
+  - Check FrontPage 2000 Server Extensions
+  - Click OK
+  - Click Next
+  - Click Finish when done
+
+  - Run P:\msvs7_1\VS\SETUP.EXE, or install from the MSDN 
     'Visual Studio.NET' CD. Click on 'Windows Component Update' 
     (if it is highlighted, else click '2').  Click 'Continue' 
     (Selecting 'Do not use this machine to host web projects').  
-    You will install IE6, which will requires a reboot.  Give your 
-    cvspassword if you want it to happen automatically.   
-  
-  - After rebooting, setup should start again.  If it does not, go 
-    back and rerun it, it should remember where it left off. After 
-    installing components, you are ready to install VC7 in .NET 
-    setup Step 2. Enter this step and enter the product-key, 
-    which is stored in P:\msvc7\vc7_prodkey.txt. On the 'Select 
-    items to install page', you need uncheck things to avoid 
-    wasting gigs of extra space and install time.

       MSDN docs if you get this.)
-
-  - Unlike VC 6.0, there is no option to add the required compiler 
-    bin\ directories to the environment path automatically. If you 
-    are building using tcsh.exe under cygwin, wait until step 7 
-    to setup the environment after your shell environment is running 
-    properly.  If you are running from the NT command line, run 
-     > C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET\Vc7\bin\vcvars32.bat
-        
----------------------------------------------------------------------
-  NOTE: 
-   There is (currently) no need to install the MS Platform SDK, 
-   since VC7 comes with an updated version of it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-  *** TO INSTALL VISUAL C++ (V6.0) ***
-
-  - Run P:\msvc-6.0\setup.exe, or install from CD. For a faster 
-    install, select custom install and uncheck everything but 
-    Visual C++, Data Access, ActiveX, and Tools
-  - On WinNT/XP/2000, you will be prompted to register environment 
-    variables for running the compiler from the command line - do it.
-  - Install MSVC Service Pack 5 by running P:\msvc-sp5\setupsp5.exe, 
-    or from CD. You may need to run P:\msvc-sp5\mdac_typ.exe first 
-    (setup will tell you if so)
-  - Install the MSDN Library documentation if this is a primary dev 
-    machine. Install from the MSDN CD.
-    To save time and disk space, choose custom install and uncheck 
-    everything but Text-Search, Index, VC++, Platform SDK, Knowledge 
-    Base, and All Other Files.
-  - Install MS Platform SDK to get updated VC libs and headers
-  - Run P:\platform-sdk\setup.exe to install the Feb 2001 Platform SDK 
-    and choose 'Install MS Platform SDK in default location.' 
-    (there may be problems with other newer versions of the Platform 
-    SDK). This should prepend the Platform SDK paths to your 
-    PATH,INCLUDE, and LIB dirs.  
-    Building libpandadx requires this step (needs DX7 headers/libs)
