Microsoft redistributable runtimes need to be present (in windows\system32 but might possibly work if you put them in your appdir): msvcp71.dll and msvcr71.dll. You should find them in the \bin directory of the full Firebird kit; or you can download them from Microsoft's site.

Depending on what language is being used you might also need to hang the \INTL subdirectory with its libraries beneath your appdir.
