Due to popular demand... The source and a binary release note that this is a very early release it is full of bugs. I literally spend just a few hours on this without knowing VB6 before I started:

@maartje went to check the code to see how did yo deal with SSL as AFAIK current versions are not available in old Windows... and there it is in the Readme: "You need a HTTPS to HTTP proxy". Brilliant! :)

@pjperez I originally planned to try importing a modern libcurl like the DOS client does but it would cost a lot of time while I recommend WebOne a lot for all retro users! It even repairs some old apps by using archive.org
