[Insight-users] First time with ITK

[Reda, Fitsum A]

Thanks for the help and tips. I did manage to get ITK up and running. The
problems were:1. ITK was saved in a longer tree directory. Making it to, for
instance, C:/ITK 3.0....
2. Building ITK in debug and HellWorld in release. I built both on Debug, It
all worked fine now.

Best,
Fitsum
