This page describes how to compile qBittorrent using MSVC 2008 under Windows. This is tested under Windows XP sp2 but it should work the same under any other Windows version. Also it should build fine with MSVC 2010 with minor adjustments. Here the Express Edition of MSVC 2008 was used but the full edition must behave the same.
