Properly installing curl in windows 2000

 I'm stuck completely. This is what I've done thus far...

I went into the php.ini and set the extensions_dir to point to the correct path, and I enabled the extenions php_curl.dll. When I hit phpinfo to get info, it tells me that curl is enabled and it gives me the version. But I've been reading and many people say the following...

"To use PHP's CURL support you must also compile PHP --with-curl[=DIR]
where DIR is the location of the directory containing the lib and include directories.
In the "include" directory there should be a folder named "curl" which should
contain the easy.h and curl.h files.
There should be a file named "libcurl.a" located in the "lib" directory"

How do I actually do this? I have no idea as to what I need to do for the above, I do have curl extracted in a directory and the include folder does contain curl in it contains the curl.h and easy.h. and the lib directory contains the libcurl.a file as well, Now how do I compile PHP --with-curl[=DIR]? I need the step by step instructions, I'm very new at this and have really no experience in programming at all so take it easy on me.
