That's a funny statement. Your curl clearly uses OpenSSL so unless you run
your own static curl build, it _is_ using OpenSSL DLLs.

The sad truth is that this is really an unknown error. OpenSSL returns
error,
but on further enquires it doesn't give more info.

Perhaps you need a newer OpenSSL or something. It's hard to tell without a
lot
of more info.

Daniel,
curl-7.19.5-win32-ssl - this is the version of curl I'm running. By its name
it seems that it has been compiled with the required OpenSSL components
build-in because of its name.
Win32OpenSSL_Light-0_9_8k - this is the version of OpenSSL I installed, and
after many configuration tests, uninstalled because it seemed the curl had
the necessary OpenSSL components.
If Win32OpenSSL_Light-0_9_8k is required in addition to
curl-7.19.5-win32-ssl, then I was not able to figure out how to get curl to
correctly call the needed Win32OpenSSL_Light-0_9_8k components.
Does curl-7.19.5-win32-ssl require the separate installation of
Win32OpenSSL_Light-0_9_8k?
Help me sort this out.
Thanks,
David
