Do these SSL libraries still require "MSVCR90.dll" from the "Visual C++ Redistributables"?
I appreciate the swift response. :-)
No, the only Microsoft C Runtime Library dependency is MSVCRT.DLL (see below output)
Thank you. I see that. I've also confirmed by uninstalling "Visual C++ Redistributables" and the OpenSSL package from "slproweb.com". The stunnel service starts up and runs fine with the latest stunnel version 4.27b2.

Thank you for the link. I've downloaded and installed the GUI version, "Process Explorer", on a test machine. I'm pleasantly surprised at its utility and light impact on system resources.
One more question please:
Will the Win32 binaries at the link you provided ftp://stunnel.mirt.net/stunnel keep up fairly closely with the latest OpenSSL releases?
With OpenSSL so widely used it is constantly being evaluated for vulnerabilities. When they're found, it is patched quickly but dependent applications are sometimes slow to incorporate patched versions.
Thanks again for your excellent help.
