Hi Freddy,

cl.exe is the compiler provided by Microsoft. It's normally part of an 
installation of Microsoft's Visual Studio IDE. I think the last version 
of Visual Studio that supports Windows XP is Visual Studio 2010. You can 
obtain the cl.exe compiler for free as part of the Windows SDK 
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=24826 . 
Hopefully this will get you started. It's probably worth trying to 
compile a simple "hello world" application first before trying to build 
anything larger.

Cheers,
Andrew
