Thank you very much for the feedback,
I will try getting openssl to build but when I tried it about a week ago I
would get to compiling the static library, part 9, it would not compile.

I guess what I am trying to get is,
is there an easier tutorial out there to help me setup the libcurl library
so that I can use it for SFTP file transferring in Visual Studio.
