I need a compiler that compiles MFC applications.
I can't download Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition, because it needs Service Pack 2, and I can't download Service Pack 2 because Windows Update doesn't work (the loading just never ends).

You did buy Windows.. right? :P
Of course I did.
I think the problem is in IE, it can't load some https pages...
I recall reading that there were issues with a recent iexplore update on winxp-sp1 systems, for which a patch to fix the buggy patch has been released - check out microsoft's site and install this updated patch and see if this helps.
I'm moving this thread to tech.

>>I need a compiler that compiles MFC applications.<<
The express editions don't permit use of mfc; the standard edition is the minimum required. If you are still at school or are a student (full or part-time) you may be eligible for a substantial student discount - contact your school/college and/or microsoft to get more information.
Isn't there any free compiler that supports MFC?
Aren't there any libraries for Mingw that let you use MFC?
I am not good at converting MFC to Win32, so I need a compiler to compile MFC applications.
You have to use the commercial versions of Microsoft Visual Studio.
I know that's an option... but I hoped there's are other ways to do it... :(
No legal ones.
I think it shouldn't be that hard to make Windows update working. You can get help from MS forum.
How about ordering a CD of Service Pack 2?Quote:

I've ordered one before and I didn't have to pay for it or the shipping. I'd imagine its the same way still.
or go to another computer (if you have any friends or work or something) and download it from the ms website. after burn it to a cd. i did that a while ago, not sure if you can still just download it by itself but i dont see why not
