jwhat, I highly suggest you require and use cURL. If you look at curl's documentation there is a way to set the certificate path, and it builds cleanly with both compilers. You can then include a bootstrap script that downloads a stable curl version, builds it with correct parameters, and then downloads the necessary certificate roots. wget = curl -O

I'm a huge fan of the Lock Picking Lawyer's youtube channel, and as far as I can recall, I've never seen him fail to pick a lock, usually within seconds or at least a few minutes. On the other hand, computer security is a laughfest, check your logfiles every day and install each update on the day it's released. And I'm not talking about Windows, there no such thing as "Windows security."
