I am VERY new to python. I used libcurl with no problems and used pyCurl once in the past. Now i want to set it up on my machine and dev. However i have no idea how to do it
You can try to download pycurl from here
http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/
PycURL is a interface to the libcurl library.
