to be true some minutes ago i've found that link and so i've googled for
this file: libecwj2-3.3-2006-09-06.zip that is an archive with the source
code of the ECW SDK 3.3 , that archive is in effect available on filetube
(1st result of the google search) so the linux/unix users can compile the
code without problems... but what about the windows users?  this link here
http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/ECW report the following instructions:

"Building GDAL with ECW support on Windows
    TO BE DONE" 

I'm wondering if the GCC (http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/3162) is good
enough to compile that source code in binary, and if there is a tested
procedure to do it... 

so i can try to use the right dlls... how much troubles to handle the ecw
format with qgis in w7... anyway... thanks for the information.
