I googled "openssl win32" and the first hit was the answer to your question. > Eg: If you are using Windows, make sure to download the Win32 version of > OpenSSL. Again, googling "download win32 openssl" gives the answer. > Once you have downloaded OpenSSL and added it to your PATH. > Also I am confused about the line "adding it your PATH". > Can anyone advise me about all this please ? Does it really make sense that you would ask the OpenSSL folks to explain what PayPal means by something when you don't even tell us what PayPal instructions you were following? I can't find the exact PayPal page you're following, but I don't see anything that resembles what you are talking about. Googling "adding it to your path" and "paypal" produced nothing. Ditto for "site:paypal.org openssl path". But that sounds like the kind of explanations experts give to each other for things that are not meant to be done by people who don't know what they're doing. (Otherwise they would have explained exactly how to do it.) I'm sorry that this falls on you, but PayPal is being really stupid here. They are creating a web page for people with no security knowledge and telling them to go find a gun, find some bullets, and see if they can get the contraption to work. The approach you are attempting is only needed with scripts which would require much more knowledge than you seem to have. (Again, no offense.) If you just need a button, follow PayPal's directions to use their own web site to create and encrypt the button. There is no reason you need to do it yourself.
