I was using the Mingw that comes with U++.
I'm now using VC++ 2005 Express (couldn't find my VC++ 2003 Toolkit), and I installed just the command line compiler with the Platform SDK (without IDE).
I couldn't use BLITZ and the compilation was slower than Mingw with BLITZ. But now that the library is already built the compilation and linking of applications are faster. Plus, with VC++ the size of final application is smaller.
Mingw size -> 1,72MB
VC++ 2005 size -> 0,98MB
If I use UPX to pack, the final application built with VC++ is about 300KB.
I know that the library is all inside the EXE and it does not need any DLL. So, this size is quite fair, although I think it could be improved.

Anyway, keep up the good work!
And thanks for the free IDE/library!
