Did you try AnyEvent::Handle? It comes with SSL support, backed by Net::SSLeay, which, funnily, uses the openssl library (not the ssleay library).

    Thanks for the suggestion, but the problem isn't doing event handling, its getting Net::SSLeay to install under windows. If I could get Net::SSLeay to install, then I could try my working code (which works very well on snow leopard) under Windows.

    Also, when I say "Windows", I guess I mean "ActiveState Perl on Windows", and when I say "Install", I mean "Install using cpan or ActiveState Package Manager".

    I'm really not much of a Windows person.
