I have use libcurl 7.91 under Windows 98 and I have not seen any freeze.
FWIW, I have used the previous versions of library and it worked fine in my
program.
I am not sure that I understand what you said. You mentioned that the work
was finished, i.e the 1 MB file was downloaded. The client program will
not get CPU time to do event processing if you are calling libcurl
functions within an event handler. I suggest that you run the libcurl
functions within a thread so that your program can process events while the
download is in progress.
