I see that; but maybe this was something needed 
before I asked you to recompile wxWidgets using 
/MTd; have you tried removing libcmtd.lib from 
the ignored libraries after that moment, as both 
libraries should now agree on what is the C runtime library to use?

As a last resort, you could add this line

#define MB_CUR_MAX 1

at the beginning of Win32TransService.cpp, before all the #include statement.

No, this looks a good list of directories.

Well, I hope for you that this conversation will end, eventually ;-)
