+          How To Build libcurl to Use ares For Asynch Name Resolves
+          =========================================================
+
+ares:
+  ftp://athena-dist.mit.edu/pub/ATHENA/ares/ares-1.1.1.tar.gz
+  http://curl.haxx.se/dev/ares-1.1.1.tar.gz
+  http://curl.sourceforge.net/dev/ares-1.1.1.tar.gz
+  http://curl.planetmirror.com/dev/ares-1.1.1.tar.gz
+  http://curl.tsuren.net/dev/ares-1.1.1.tar.gz
+  
+c-ares: (a patched and improved version of ares)
+  http://curl.haxx.se/beta/arescurl-1.0-pre1.tar.gz
+
+NOTE
+  libcurl works with ares 1.1.1, but several patches and improvements have
+  been put into the c-ares package which has made it more portable and better
+  working on several platforms.
+
+Build ares
+==========
+
+1. unpack the ares archive
+2. cd ares-dir
+3. ./configure
+4. make
+
+Build libcurl to use ares in the curl source tree
+=================================================
+
+1. name the ares source directory 'ares' in the curl source directory
+2. ./configure --enable-ares
+3. make
+
+Build libcurl to use an installed ares
+======================================
+
+1. ./configure --enable-ares=/path/to/ares/install
+2. make
+
+Ares and ipv6
+=============
+
+If the configure script enables IPv6 support you need to explicitly disable
+that (--disable-ipv6) since ares isn't IPv6 compatible (yet).
+
+Ares on win32
+=============
+(description brought by Dominick Meglio)
+
+First I compiled curl-ares. I changed the default C runtime library to be the
+single-threaded rather than the multi-threaded (this seems to be required to
+prevent linking errors later on). Then I simply build the areslib project (the
+other projects adig/ahost seem to fail under MSVC).
+
+Next was libcurl. I opened lib/config-win32.h and I added a:
+ #define USE_ARES 1
+
+Next thing I did was I added the path for the ares includes to the include
+path, and the libares.lib to the libraries.
+
+Lastly, I also changed libcurl to be single-threaded rather than
+multi-threaded, again this was to prevent some duplicate symbol errors. I'm
+not sure why I needed to change everything to single-threaded, but when I
+didn't I got redefinition errors for several CRT functions (malloc, stricmp,
+etc.)
+
+I would have modified the MSVC++ project files, but I only have VC.NET and it
+uses a different format than VC6.0 so I didn't want to go and change
+everything and remove VC6.0 support from libcurl.
