Comment (by ikurua22):

 Why I can't use Code::Blocks or some other open-source compiler to build
 windows binary?
 I don't trust Visual Studio because it was created by Microsoft.

 VS is used by many companies - MS will use them as a puppet - to install
 hidden attack-code
 or spyware inside its binary. Even the developer say "It's okay! My source
 code is open!",
 he/she used VS for compile a binary, this is a huge security problem.

 Please, don't use VS. Consider using MingGW, CodeBlocks, etc to create
 .exe files...
