      In the ..\mongo\src\mongo\installer\msi\ca\targetver.h file, we set the WINVER and _WIN32_WINNT preprocessor macros to 0x0600  (Windows Vista). We should update these to at least _WIN32_WINNT_WIN10 (Windows 10). Ideally, we'd move over to the NTDDI approach for min version. 

      At the same time, we should also be setting the min IE version to something closer to modern. IE6 has an EOL in 2014.
