MSMQ 3.0 / 4.0 download

Question

I need to use messaging using MSMQ in a project at work and my developement environment (Win XP SP3) came with MSMQ 2.0 only. Need some features of MSMQ 3.0 (like poison queues) and am having a hard time finding the installable for it.

Your help is appreciated

Thanks Venu

Please ignore my question. I was mistaken as I found that MSMQ 3.0 was installed on my envioronment. From the link below

"Query the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSMQ\Parameters\CurrentBuild registry value

5.0.xxx is MSMQ 2.0 (Windows 2000) 5.1.xxx is MSMQ 3.0 (Windows XP) 5.2.xxx is MSMQ 3.0 (Windows 2003) 6.xxxxx is MSMQ 4.0 (Windows Vista and 2008) "
