Bare bone program hangs (Visual Studio 2003)

Hi there. I just installed Visual Studio 2003 Professional and discovered
that the most basic program hangs in the IDE. It runs fine from the command
line however.

#include "stdafx.h"

int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
return 0;
}

Note that this executable (test.exe) appears in the task manager but the IDE
is completely frozen and needs to be forcibly shut down. Any ideas? (am
using Win2000 Pro, 1 Gb memory, etc.). Thanks.
 
BTW, after the IDE is shut down via the task manager, "test.exe" continues
to appear in the task manager. It appears that the IDE is launching the
program but then it never returns (the IDE is apparently hung waiting for
it). Trying to step through it makes no difference either.
