My grandma swears you skipped step number 14 ;-)

14) From within VC8 Solution Explorer -> Right click on "MyApp" -> Properties
    Automagically MyApp Properties Pages window opens
    Select: Configuration "All Configurations"
    Select: Configuration Properties -> C/C++ -> General -> Additional
Include Directories
      and specify: C:\MyFirstAttempt\curl-7.16.2\include\curl
    Press Button "Apply"
    Press Button "Accept"

In your case directory name would be "c:\temp\curl-7.16.2\include\curl"

Cheers,
