Actually, M$VC uses that header in order to precompile the header files
(you know, all the templates and inlines). So it has a strange behavior
concerning this file. You actually have to include it before any other
include (not on the "first" line though)

BUT, getting completely rid of stdafx.h is possible. Just have to tweak a
bit the IDE, and it will be able to completely work without any evil
stdafx.h. The compilation time will be quite increased though.
