Wordpress uses the curl tool (curl.exe)? I'm surprised I would've
guessed they use php/curl. The option that causes that error is -3 aka
--sslv3 [1]. To stop Wordpress from using SSLv3 remove that option from
the command line. Where to do that in Wordpress I don't know, you will
probably need to ask them.
