Aha.

Well, I remember having trouble installing openssl as well, it was kind of confusing since there seems to be more than one distribution for windows. I finally got it working installing from ShiningLight Openssl.

After installing that, check out

http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Downloads/ActivePerl/PPM/Repository

And follow the tips there to do.....

ppm install http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppmpackages/Crypt-SSLeay.ppd

Gotta use uwinnipeg, since this isn't included in the standard activestate repositories, for reasons that probably have to do with exporting encryption or something, but I'm not sure.

I think I tried making it myself with nmake, as well, and no dice. In the end it only worked with the above ppm install.
