I put the curl(the header fielse) on to C:\Program Files\Microsoft 
Visual Studio\VC98\Include path. Rename libcur_imp.lib to curl.lib and 
put it into C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Lib path. And 
finally the libcurl.dll. I do not understand well where it I can put. 
So, 1st I put it the path C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual 
Studio\VC98.After got the error message 1st time I put them 
(libcurl.dll,libeay32.dll,ssleay32.dll & zlib1.dll) into the path 
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Include.I got the same 
error message.And finally I put then into C:\Program Files\Microsoft 
Visual Studio\VC98\Include\curl path and I got the same error 
message.What is my misstake? I guss I have failed to put the libcurl.dll 
into the right path. Please help me.

Regards,
Shuvo.
