So I got it to d/l after waiting a day. I go to my C:/ and all the files have green mesh over them or a freakin question mark. It looks as if a virus invaded my comp! How do I get that stuff off the files and folders?

Those icon overlays are supposed to only be within the module you downloaded from CVS. I have no idea how you got it on your entire hard drive...

Not Version of CVS, what kind (program) of cvs!
But i think you use TortoiseCVS.
Because 1.2 was last stable, current is 1.3.11 from 05-03-2003.
And because all others cvs implementions are not bound in system (your icons are green and red)
First deinstall TortoiseCVS, then delete CVS-related files like .cvsignore and so on..
You choosed wrong cvs source folder, make a folder like "CVS sources" but never choose C:\ as default folder.
Just read docu.

Be glad that CVS never deletes files which aren't in repo, else your hdd would be clean except SEQ files.

Can I use Borland C++ to compile?
If not.. what can I use besides VB.. don't have that.

can't use VB either, since the program isn't written in BASIC. it's C++, and with a LOT of tweaking and playing around, you could probably get it to compile in Borland C++..
