Actually, I'm not distributing GTK+, only gtkmm. The GTK+ installer I 
recommend is the work of Ivan Wong, from the gladewin32 project.

By the way, for developers interested in the upcoming gtkmm 2.6, I have 
updated my (unstable) installer to gtkmm-2.5.5 CVS. It also support 
MSVC.Net 2003 (with some restrictions outlined in bug #158040).
