[ParaView] problems with MPI

[Amy Squillacote]

Since you're building on Windows, your MPI_LIBRARY name should be 
something like mpich.lib; the .a file extension indicates a static 
library on a unix machine. The file libmpich.a probably does not exist 
on your machine, but mpich.lib probably does (judging from the install 
of MPICH on my Windows machine.) Find the directory where MPICH was 
installed. (I think C:/Program Files/MPICH is the default.) Look in the 
SDK/Lib directory for the library file.
