There is a document on the curl website for building OpenSSL, libssh2 and libcurl that can be found at [2]. I have a build process that is more complicated if that doesn't work.

Hi, yeah i compiled my .lib file originally in msvc 10+. But that still produced a problem. The stack error appears in the openssl.c file. I'll try the instructions at the link you sent too tonight thanks.
