PHP URL file-access?

[samh]

I made a php file with the source:
<?php
echo file_get_contents('http://www.google.com'); ?>
and I got

Warning: file_get_contents() [function.file-get-contents]: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in /hosted/subs/ulmb.com/s/a/samh/public_html/index.php on line 2.

Can you please enable URL file-access?
