From the wiki, it went to https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Binaries

Why didn't the fulgan.com link work for you?? It should.
Note: You can also use http (i.e. http://indy.fulgan.com/SSL/) for the
fulgan link (because otherwise you couldn't download it automatically
with your program because you need OpenSSL to download via https ;)
Anyone with a successful experience can give me a direct url for the
openssl dll?
Try to figure out why the fulgan-link doesn't work.
By the way, for those zip files I tried, although they are named
xxx-win64, the dll contained in them are named ssleay32.dll and
libeay32.dll.
Is that normal for a win64 bit dll to be named xxx32.dll?
Yes, this is normal.
It's the same with the fact that system32 in C:\Windows has 64 bit DLLs
and SysWOW64 has the 32 bit DLLs on a 64 bit OS machine.
Some background about the naming:
