Releasing xll made using c# vs 2008

No Libraries.Depends.Exe lists MSVCR90 as dependency, I dont know whether it is there on the target machine.Dot net 3.0 .Target machine is Windows vista, Which has dot Net 3.0 by default I presume. Ps: I am using Alglib C#, but not as a library, it is used as source.
