I am the origianl author of ht://Dig, not of the win32 port of ht://Dig.
However, I think I can help you here... You need to get and install the
cygwin package from http://www.cygnus.com/. It was used to create the win32
port and any programs created with it require the DLL that your copy complains
about.
I hope that helps.
