Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Packages

Hello.

There is something that is missing here. Microsoft Visual C++ 2003 runtime does not have a package of it's own like later versions. When one wants to run a program that needs msvcrt71.dll (and in my case I wanted to run PBL Peeper) none of these packages fits.
The solution for me in Windows Server 2012r2 was to install the 106.2 MB package refered in this comment:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1596167/where-to-download-microsoft-visual-c-2003-redistributable
This is in fact the full install package for .NET 1.1 SDK.
It would be nice if you added this package to your repository.

Have a nice day!

There apparently never was a VS 2003 redistributable package. Instead it was included in the Mictsoft .NET 1.1 Redistiributable, which I was just able to download from here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/download/confirmation.aspx?id=26

Good luck!

There was never a full inclusion of VS2003 Runtimes in the .Net Package 1.1 redist, all it included was MSVCR71, it did not include MFC71, MSVCP71 or ATL71 dlls, these were only installed by Visual Studio.Net/2003

VS2010 is now here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=26999 and you choose which you want after clicking Download.

VS 2005 SP1 MVC
is not the same as
VS 2005 SP1
and the one that Microsoft is still hosting, the MVC one, doesn't work for some software and prevents the software from running until the real one (the real one was taken down by Microsoft) is installed.....

GOOD THING IT'S REDISTRIBUTABLE!!!

good grief, Microsoft...
