Downloaded D and tried to compile "htmlget.d" (dmd\samples directory), but got
lots of linker errors:

(..... several more errors in here ......)

I am quite sure that all supplied samples are OK. So it's probbly me - but why
???

Add ws2_32.lib to the compile command:
dmd htmlget.d ws2_32.lib

I'd be nice if Walter would add some batch files to "samples\d" 
directory to show the new people how they need to be compiled (such as 
the attached file).

That's not always true. Sometimes the samples contain deprecated 
features and stop compiling. (Oops.)
