Help with simple error

I haven't done much with C, and what I have done hasn't tied into any window handles or processes. I'd like to build a socket based remote control plugin for winamp. For starters though, I'd like to just be able to compile, and get the winamp handle through FindWindow (and I don't even know where FindWindow belongs, I'm assuming it's from the windows.h header).

Here's the code I'm trying to compile

Code:
#include <stdafx.h>
#include <windows.h>
#include <process.h>
#include <wa_ipc.h>


int main()
{
  HWND hwnd_winamp;
  hwnd_winamp = FindWindow("Winamp",NULL);

  return 0;
}
And the error
