Actually there are  three macros (plus the IE one) to worry about:
(very incomplete, maybe some could fill in the gaps)

OS		WINVER	WIN32_WINDOWS	WIN32_WINNT
----------------------------------------------------
Win95		0x0400	

Win98		0x0500	0x0410			

WinME		0x0500

NT 4		0x0400	0x0410		0x0400

Win2k		0x0500			0x0500

XP
