SSL access

Hi Guys,
I need to be able to read a web page using SSL (https). For my normal FTP and
http access I've been using Einetlib by Fabio Ramirez which works great, but I
can't get it to work to an https page. it always complains about an invalid
certificate with a ERROR_INTERNET_INVALID_CA error. As per the wininet API I
tried adding some 'ignore' flags to my openurl as below

hFile= InternetOpenUrl({ 
          {"session_id",hConn},
          {"url","https://mypage..."},
          {"flags", net_or_all({INTERNET_FLAG_RELOAD, 
                                INTERNET_FLAG_IGNORE_CERT_CN_INVALID,
                                INTERNET_FLAG_IGNORE_CERT_DATE_INVALID})
}})

Still doesn't work, so then I tried EuLibCurl, but it seems the libcurl Dll is
built without SSL support. I tried downloading an SSL version and replacing the
original with that (don't know what I'm doing but it was worth     a try!), but
then I it can't open the dll..
Any suggestions from you clever guys?
