+   Disabling Specific Protocols:
+
+      The configure utility, unfortunately, is not available for the Windows
+      environment, therefore, you cannot use the various disable-protocol
+      options of the configure utility on this platform.
+
+      However, you can use the following defines to disable specific
+      protocols:
+
+      HTTP_ONLY             disables all protocols except HTTP
+      CURL_DISABLE_FTP      disables FTP
+      CURL_DISABLE_LDAP     disables LDAP
+      CURL_DISABLE_TELNET   disables TELNET
+      CURL_DISABLE_DICT     disables DICT
+      CURL_DISABLE_FILE     disables FILE
+      CURL_DISABLE_GOPHER   disables GOPHER
+
+      If you want to set any of these defines you have the following
+      possibilities:
+
+      - Modify lib/setup.h
+      - Modify lib/Makefile.vc6
+      - Add defines to Project/Settings/C/C++/General/Preprocessor Definitions
+        in the curllib.dsw/curllib.dsp Visual C++ 6 IDE project.
