hi stephen,

for windows libs, try the boost installer...
http://www.boost-consulting.org/boost_1_33_1_setup.exe

this is an installer for the most common windows versions of the 
libraries that actually need to be build.
BUT, most of  the libs are header only, so there is no need to build 
anything. just include the headers and your done.

if you need a better installing/building guide, try reading the new 
getting started guide mr. david abrahams wrote:
