Hi Simon, If HTTPMethod returns false then check HTTP.Sock.SSL.LastErrorDesc.
When it says something like 'error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed' and the site opens correctly in your browser, then openssl probably hasn't any root certificate authorities to compare with. As www.openssl.org/support/faq.html says: "The OpenSSL software is shipped without any root CA certificate as the OpenSSL project does not have any policy on including or excluding any specific CA and does not intend to set up such a policy. Deciding about which CAs to support is up to application developers or administrators.

Hi Ludo, Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work. When HTTP.Sock.SSL.VerifyCert is true, HTTPMethod returns immediately. Please advise. Thanks.
