libwww compilation on MSVC 7.0

I am developing some c/c++ programs to fetch .zip
files from various external spatial data providers.
I need to build the libwww libary in order to make sure
that I can write code to download these files via http
and ftp protocols without using Microsoft-specific
functionality. (client requirement)

According to their site....

"Libwww is a highly modular, general-purpose client side
Web API written in C for Unix and Windows (Win32)
It's well suited for both small and large applications, like
browser/editors,robots,batch tools, etc."

I've downloaded the Windows installation .zip file and followed
the instructions given in the links below.

http://www.w3.org/INSTALL.html#Windows
http://www.w3.org/Library/User/Platform/WinDLL.html

However I cannot build all the libraries in the project, even when
the references to regex.h are removed.

Has anyone successfully built this using MSVC++ 7 ?

Thanks in advance
