Hello, Gilles.

I have download a last DLL-binary from your site:
http://www.winimage.com/zLibDll/zlib125.zip

The DLL cannot start on Windows2000. OS says that "DecodePointer: not found in KERNEL32.dll"

I have checked zlibwapi.dll with Dependency walker, and i found DecodePointer in import-list of zlibwapi.dll.
DecodePointer is new API, MSDN say that "Requirements minimum supported client Windows Vista, Windows XP with SP2."

Do you have a plan to support Windows2000?
Microsoft will close to support for Windows2000 at 13 July 2010. Therefore even if this problem isnot corrected, I think it isnot serious.
