I've had horrible luck with curl through iis because of thread
safety, and I think apache for windows is multi-thread like iis. I
solved my problem by making any script that has to use curl run under
a different extension, and load that up as a pure cgi call instead of
a filter or mod_php in your case. Those scripts are a tad slower to
run, but they work well enough. I hope that helps
