Also thinking about this....
Which is more likely?
#1 People reading the manual and installing the libraries#2 People getting
lucky and never hitting an https redirect#3 Port 80 working on whatever server
gets the redirect.
My money is on #3 being the best chance of success and minimal user complaints
of downloads not working.I can't imagine a server refusing a download on port
80....owner would have to awfully pedantic since no user info is involved at
all.
As for #2 I can tell you my success rate was less than 10%.

Hi Mike, that is an interesting approach, I had not thought to ignore the URL
scheme and force the redirects back to http. I don't have time to check just
now but I wonder if you tried printing the URL redirect chain out to see if
changing the scheme leads to a different server? Most of the redirects are to
reach a local mirror server so if the result ends up at the same server we can
certainly do this, of course there's no guarantee it will always work. May be
worth changing if more users have issues with SSL errors. I believe the errors
Claude is getting are related an old or broken version of OpenSSL on the Unix
distribution being used. As far as the installing of SSL libraries, this is a
Windows specific issue since other systems will usually have OpenSSL installed
already. 73
