1 Visual Studio use an webbrowser ActiveX control internally. If your IE's
security setting is too restrict you will get an error.
2 If you are using VC2005 Express, you need to download Windows SDK
separately. AWindows SDK that was current at the time VC2008 Express
released is included in VC2008 Express, you can also download the the
current full SDK from Microsoft download center..
