Hello,

Today, I have downloaded "curl-7.14.1.tar.gz" and was able to compile it successfully.
But make install failed

$USER_at_BOX:$PWD/Curl/curl-7.14.1 $ make install

Any pointers?

1. Install libcurl

2. Compile example source and link with libcurl

3. Run it

Exactly what problems do you have? You will need to edit the example for it to
be really useful to you.
