Ok i finally figured it out, download:
WinCVS (http://cvsgui.sourceforge.net/)

Read install.txt

Install both things

Run WinCVS

Choose a folder where u want the b2evolution cvs dir to go

Goto Admin+Command Line (ctrl+L)

For the LATEST CVS build (only get this one if you were specificly told to get it, or if you are a developer wanting to work with the latest build):

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@evocms.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/evocms co -P b2evolution

For the v1.8 branch (should be stable) (download this one if you want the v1.8 version):

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@evocms.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/evocms co -r v-1-8 -P b2evolution

Press OK

And then wait a long time.

If you just want the latest cvs build without the hassle, use this link:

UPDATE:
Added instructions to the wiki, this is where tutes should now go.

Any plans to move across to SVN since it seems CVS is starting to get phased out?

Notification:
The new command line for b2evo now is:

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@evocms.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/evocms co -P b2evolution

:D

To get the new v-1-8 branch use:

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@evocms.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/evocms co -r v-1-8 -P b2evolution

In my opinion, it's more convenient to just work with the command-line CVS client. After your initial login, all you have to do is type cvs up to get the latest files (or cvs ci if you have write permissions). This is especially true if your file manager has a shell (I use Midnight Commander, which is awesome, but I used to use a Windows program that allowed it, as Windows Explorer was terribly unstable).

Yeah, GNU CVS is in maintenance mode, CVSNT is commercial, and OpenCVS seems like vaporware. But still, I wouldn't too much recommend SVN; it has no fault tolerance at all. In fact, CVS remains my favorite VCS, warts and all.
