Could use the xampp package or just the openssl & php from it,

I have been plugging away at this for some time now and I can not figure
out how to get https and ftps as registered streams in my Windows
installation of Php (4.4.0). My direct need is to use fopen on secure
URLs - https.
(I've installed openssl - enabled the Php openssl extension - and
verified that my copy of Php was compiled with the openssl module.)
The latest thing I have read says that I need a "special" copy of
php4ts.dll in order to enable secure streams (https, ftps) in Php on
Windows (XP, in my case).
The posts I read point to copies of php4ts.dll for Php 4.3.4.
I am running Php 4.4.0. Where can I find a copy of php4ts.dll for
Php4.4.0 that enables secure streams?
(And is that really the solution in Php 4.4.0?)
Thanks in Advance
A followup: This is from a while back (two weeks ago), but I finally
tried installing xampp. I installed it into c:\xampp and when I managed
to get it working (independent of my other apache service) it did what I
needed. I had https and ftps as registered streams. Soooooooo ... I
copied the php in xampp into c:\php and the apache dll files into my
existing apache folder and ultimately made a real mess of things. Since
I had backed everything up, I put it all back the way it was,
uninstalled xampp, and to my surprise, I now have https and ftps streams
registered in my previous installation. I'm glad I can finally access
secure sites from my Php scripts, but I have no idea what is that I
managed to change to allow it.
(I have a guess. With things mixed up a bit I started getting an error
message I'd never seen before when starting Apache (with Php as a
module). A search on Google for the error message ... Function
registration failed - duplicate name .... I got the advice to NOT
register openssl in php.ini, if it was already statically linked in the
binary. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm. This may have been my problem earlier, but for
some reason I was not seeing any error messages.)
Oh well. At least it's Apache 2.0.55 OpenSSL/0.9.8a and Php 4.4.1, so I
shouldn't need to upgrade any time soon (other than to eventually try
out Php 5).
