Hey everybody,

Thanks for all the great ideas. I've managed to fix the problem temporarily.

The Microsoft.VC90.CR version 9.0.21022.8 manifest files were missing
on the laptop. And as I found they are missing on most of the PCs,
i.e. apparently this is not something standard that ships with VS
2005/2008 Redistributable.

The only long term solution is to rebuild the latest release of
libcurl (or possibly change its manifest to something more common).
Otherwise, there is a chance that the program will not run on client's
PC.
