I have an old dll that uses the Microsoft Visual C++ 2003 (7.1) run time package. Unfortunately I don't have that DLL around anymore. Short of reinstalling VS2003, is there another way to get the run time redistributable dll?

Storm's answer is not correct. No hard feelings Storm, and apologies to the OP as I'm a bit late to the party here (wish I could have helped sooner, but I didn't run into the problem until today, or this stack overflow answer until I was figuring out a solution.)
The Visual C++ 2003 runtime was not available as a seperate download because it was included with the .NET 1.1 runtime.
If you install the .NET 1.1 runtime you will get msvcr71.dll installed, and in addition added to C:WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv1.1.4322.
The .NET 1.1 runtime is available here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?familyid=262d25e3-f589-4842-8157-034d1e7cf3a3&displaylang=en (23.1 MB)
If you are looking for a file that ends with a 'P' such as msvcp71.dll, this indicates that your file was compiled against a C++ runtime (as opposed to a C runtime), in some situations I noticed these files were only installed when I installed the full SDK. If you need one of these files, you may need to install the full .NET 1.1 SDK as well, which is available here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=9b3a2ca6-3647-4070-9f41-a333c6b9181d (106.2 MB)
After installing the SDK I now have both msvcr71.dll and msvcp71.dll in my System32 folder, and the application I'm trying to run (boomerang c++ decompiler) works fine without any missing DLL errors.
Also on a side note: be VERY aware of the difference between a Hotfix Update and a Regular Update. As noted in the linked KB932298 download (linked below by Storm): 'Please be aware this Hotfix has not gone through full Microsoft product regression testing nor has it been tested in combination with other Hotfixes.'
Hotfixes are NOT meant for general users, but rather users who are facing a very specific problem. As described in the article only install that Hotfix if you are have having specific daylight savings time issues with the rules that changed in 2007. -- Likely this was a pre-release for customers who 'just couldn't wait' for the official update (probably for some business critical application) -- for regular users Windows Update should be all you need.
Thanks, and I hope this helps others who run into this issue!
After a bit of googling, it seems that there never was a separate redistributable for Visual C++ 2003 (7.1). At least that is what a post on the microsoft forum says.
You may however be able to extract the runtime DLLs from the VC 7.1 DST timezone update.
Another way:
using Unofficial (Full Size: 26.1 MB) VC++ All in one that contained your needed files:
OR (Smallest 5.10 MB) Microsoft Visual Basic/C++ Runtimes 1.1.1 RePacked Here:
the answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/6132093/1498669 is right.
There is also an update to both 2002 and 2003 runtimesjust do an search on microsoft download
and you find the offical updates to the products
however, the latest patches seem to be:
I think this is what you're looking for: Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x86)
