This software uses the Boost C++ library, and references the following headers:

• boost/program_options.hpp
• boost/algorithm/string.hpp

In order to compile in Visual Studio 2010, follow these instructions:

1. Download and launch the BoostPro 1.51.0 (32-bit) Installer from https://www.boostpro.com/download/.
2. In the installation wizard proceed through the pages until the Select default varients page.
3. Set the Visual C++ 10.0 (Visual Studio 2010) checkbox and click Next.
4. In the list of components, set the Boost ProgramOptions/VC10.0 node and click Next.
5. Make a note of the destination folder and click Install.
6. After installation is complete, go to the Windows desktop, right-click My Computer and click Properties.
7. Click Advanced system settings and click Environment Variables...
8. Within the System variables group, click New... and create a new environment variable with the name BOOST_X86 and set the value to location that Boost was installed to.
9. Download or check out the source from github and open ieproxy.sln in Visual Studio.
10. Wait for Visual Studio to parse included files. The project properties already include a reference the BOOST_X86 environment variable.
11. When Visual Studio has parsing files, the project can be built via Build > Build Solution. You may wish to change the build configuration to Release first.
