You'll need the commercial CVS Suite from March Hare
(http://www.march-hare.com/cvspro/)

An alternative is to get the commercial CVS SCC proxy from pushok
(http://www.pushok.com/soft_cvs.php).

There are some other solutions (like Jalindi) but they don't appear to be as
well maintained/supported.

BTW the reason why VS integration is not available in open source is because
the applicable API (SCCI) is only available under an NDA from Microsoft;
plus its a pretty ugly API to work with too.
