You can download the jar file from the Maven Repository.

You just need to place the jar on the classpath, no need to install anything.

Can I ask you which specific file should I download?

I would recommend the jar for version 3.1 since it's the latest release.

I see the binary download comes with several JAR files (about 10) Do I need to install only httpclient or all of the JARs?

ypu can download it from here . http://hc.apache.org/httpclient-3.x/ You will need to add it to the build path (if you are using eclipse).
