→My first failed attempt to build Firefox 1.8.1
Without researching further on the problem, I consulted one of my classmates and he said that I had to re-install Visual Studio 2003. I was skeptical about his way of resolving this problem (and also it would be a hassle since I've uninstalled it a week before this build), so I looked into it further and found out from [http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=438157&sid=03462713fcf201b52e92791b2c65d14f Mozillazine] that the solution is to install Cygwin.
I tried a new clean build with *[http://cs.senecac.on.ca/%7Edavid.humphrey/writing/firefox-win32-build.html David Humphrey's Guide to Building Firefox on Win32 using Visual Studio .NET 2005] (very conciseand recommended for the heroes who want to build Firefox).
