It's unclear if you're installing curl from the source or from a binary
package. If you're a newbie, you probably want a binary package in which
case the instructions at that link won't help you (as the instructions
themselves say). Use the download wizard at http://curl.haxx.se/dlwiz/
to help you select the proper binary package to install.

If you are truly trying to install from source, it's trickier. I believe
the mingw32.bat file is part of the MingW32 compiler package.
