If your first mail of the current thread, you forgot to tell us an 
interesting 
information: your compiler name and version¹. You say your are using VC2005. 
Have you tried both Debug and Release configurations? Have you installed the 
service pack 1 of VC2005?

Actually maybe there is a problem using CGAL libraries with a static runtime. 
That setup has not been really tested on Windows, as far as I know.
