It might not be PATH. There are a ton of options, e.g. the Manifest in use, Application configuration files, registry settings or code used in Python to change the ActivationContext when loading things. In addition, you might already have loaded the 'ssleay32.dll' in the reactor call, so the second call doesn't really load it anymore. In fact, 'twisted.internet import reactor' does just that, it loads its own copy of 'ssleay32.dll', and as your ctypes call does not specifiy an absolute path or sets up any activation context, you get the already loaded DLL.
