In terms of code, nothing, but they are compiled using different versions of Microsoft Visual Studio and require different Visual C++ Runtimes to be installed on your PC. The VS2008 version might see some minor performance increases due to additional compiler optimization, but you are free to use either version. If you wish to use the VS2008 version, you will need to install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package found at microsoft.
