I download it from http://pycurl.sourceforge.net/
and then extract it to D:\usr\pycurl-7.15.2
then
D:\usr\pycurl-7.15.2>setup.py install --curl-dir=d:\usr\pycurl-7.15.2
Using curl directory: d:\usr\pycurl-7.15.2
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "D:\usr\pycurl-7.15.2\setup.py", line 197, in ?
assert os.path.isfile(o), o
AssertionError: d:\usr\pycurl-7.15.2\lib\libcurl.lib

I would say you need to install libcurl first. "--curl-dir"
isn't the directory where you want to install pycurl; it is
the location of the curl library, which isn't implemented in
python.

You can find the binaries (or the sources) here:
