OpenCV MS Studio 2008

+++++++++++++Geek time+++++++++++++++++++++
===========================================
Ok I have managed to get opencv1.1pre1a working with MS Studio 2008.

Here are the steps I followed:
Go to this link and follow the instructions - BUT only:
- add the folders that actually exist
- additionally add to the source and includes sections, the other folders in the 'otherlibs' directory.

Unrelated but possibly relevant, I tried to follow the instructions here but they didn't work as I had to get GLUT, but after installing glut I still couldn't compile it... but then I double checked my project options and found that the steps I took in this link were outdated.
