Hello, I don't think the last version of the Windows FD produced by the project has LZO in the Windows version. For nearly every platform, we must build LZO from source, so it took longer to get it into the Windows version.
LZO is compiled into the Bacula Systems Windows binaries which are available through www.baculasystems.com. I am not 100% sure it has been properly tested though. If you find it is not working in the Bacula Systems binaries, please let me know (best submit a bug report bugs.bacula.org), and we will fix it.
