Well, first off, you should have a look at your keyboard. Your shift key appears to be broken. Second, the DLL needs to be in your executable's working directory. [EDIT] -- |

Alright, since my "your shift key appears to be broken" comment was apparently too subtle: start capitalizing your posts. This isn't Counter-Strike. It's a forum. You have ample time to use proper spelling and capitalization in your posts. -- |

Much better! You should not have to download anything. If you're using Allegro, you have either already downloaded or built an Allegro DLL yourself (and if you need further proof that you have it, your program runs in Dev-C++ -- |

I.e. dir alleg44.dll /s in the root of C:\ (or whichever drive you keep your programming stuff on)? (The graphical search tool in Windows is notoriously bad at actually finding stuff) -- |

Just a side question, but can programs find a dll when you put it in a /bin subfolder? When using multiple libraries, you would want to make the main folder as clean as you can. Or is the better option to put the executable in the bin folder as well and have a link to it in the main folder?

Well, technically, you can specify any path you want with LoadLibrary()/LoadLibraryEx(). -- |

i'm just done with my PingPong game but the problem is that i can only play it in my compiler (Dev-C++) and not from the .exe file cuz the i get a error message saying that i dont have the alleg44.dll , any idees?
). You can either copy the DLL into the executable's directory or copy it into Windows\system32 (or link statically, but that'll just be more trouble than it's worth). I recommend the former. Just remember to distribute it along with your game when you release it.
