The size of the Release Unicode x86 build (with statically linked MFC libraries) mushrooms to, get ready for this, 1.54MB!!! Just for those 3 lines of code and a sh*t ton of MFC stuff that will never be used in this project. And obviously it doesn't run on Win2K either.
Did you try that with dynamic linking to MFC? This pretty sure wouldn't run on Win2k either, but I would be interested in the release EXE file size.
