Visual C++ 2008 Express Download Link Dead? [closed]

Question

the programming class I am currently taking uses Visual C++ 2008, and to work from home, we have the option of getting the express edition. I can't find the download link anywhere on the website, and the Microsoft support was absolutely no help. I also looked into just using Visual C++ 2010 but I heard there isn't much of a chance for compatability to work. If anyone has information on where I can get the Visual Studio 2008 express ISO or the C++ 2008 express download seperately, then let me know.

Answer 1

Direct link no more working for 2008.

Just VS 2008 Express
