Does anyone know of an alternative library for creating http requests

This seems to be a wrapper around libcurl.
Does it work on Windows?
Not by my definition of work:
- there are no windows binaries for libcurl
- getting https support on windows seems pretty hit'n'miss:

I'm still reeling from what seems to be such a huge problem with httplib
that seem to be largely ignored :-(
