Last  time  I  checked,  there was a download for the ircu2.10.02 from
www.wircds.com  for  Windows.  There are a few different IRCds on that
site  too,  all  under  the downloads page, using the drop down lists,
along  with  various  services for the servers. But as suggested, it's
probably  best  to  run  it  on a linux or FreeBSD system, and get the
latest version from the coder-com website.

I  tried  compiling  in cygwin, and got a few errors, and takes a fair
bit of work to get around them (not that easy if you're not a coder...
like me ;)

I  do  hope  I  didn't overstep my mark as an observer on this list, I
thought  I could contribute with this little extra bit, seeing as I've
done some work with windows based IRCds recently.
