Oh. Then why aren't those sybolas in there? BTW, what version of curl is
this?

I thought you built this from source, and then the libcurl.dll doesn't just
appear, it is built by you. So if it is there, you built it. Or someone else
built it for you.

You can download a development package for win32 from the curl web site,
however I think there is some problem with it related to VC++ not playing
along with other compilers and that archive's contents are build with the
(free) mingw32 compiler.

I'm glad you can use software I've written to do something that I have no
idea about what it is (OFX rings no bells here)! ;-)

If you meant "right toolkit" (as libcurl is hardly a write toolkit - or maybe
it is?) I really can't tell since I don't know your requirements.

If you merely want to get or send data over HTTPS, then I honestly think that
you won't find any other library that is as easy to use as libcurl.
Especially not with this price tag.
