Hi all I was pointed to the same place, but then i've found the following at phpbuilder forums:
"I've looked upon that one too, but it seems that cURL only supports HTTPS connections and not the standard SSL connect. I've been to the cURL website and it says that SSL/SSH features still have to be implemented. I have to make a normal socket connection but it doesn't seem to be supported in curl."
