 * mpapwebmaster,
 * Curl is usually available with the basic PHP package. I had coded a few checks,
   just in case, but apparently I missed one. 😉
 * This error will go away with v6.7, but until then, the only solution is to install
   the missing curl functions.

 * You can also download and install the current DEV version from [http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/nextgen-facebook.zip](http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/nextgen-facebook.zip).
