Hehe, I'm running on Windows7 and I couldn't get cURL to work even though I thought I had installed Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package MFC Security Update. Turns out I hadn't even installed Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 itself. After installing that I ran the MFC Security Update listed on the first post and now it works. *facepalm*
