Downloaded mingw and installed fine in Vista.
Tested lilypond-book and lily by compiling notation/pitches.itely - 
fine
convert-ly - fine
Dropped a couple of files onto desktop icon - not so good
 A log file was produced which stopped at Drawing systems...
 but no .ps or .pfd appeared.
 The same files compiled fine from command line.
 I don't know what the problem is, but as I never do this
 normally maybe it's always been that way on my system ??
 Perhaps it's because I don't run with administrator priviledges
 which means I can't write to the desktop ??

Fix the website.  It's important.  It gives a very bad impression
at the moment.
