one-time solution:
In the terminal from which you want to start the program, type
  export
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/path/of/directory/which/contains/thelib
then start the program.

This is valid for a POSIX-compliant shell (bash, ksh, zsh, sh,...).
If you use (t)csh, the syntax is different, probably something like
set LD_LIBRARY_PATH $LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/path/of/directory/which/contains/thelib

but [flame] you shouldn't use tcsh, it's outdated - the welcome page of tcsh.org
was last edited nearly six years ago[/flame] (don't take this comment seriously
unless you like nerdish flame wars - I hope someone on the list does ;-) )

long-term solution:
a) put the above command into your shell's start-up script
b) ask the author of the program or whoever compiled it to use the switch
'-static-intel'. This doesn't alter the functionality of the program and makes
it independent of the intel libraries which most people (notably non-developers)
probably don't have on their system.

Cheers, Tim
