This is a very painfull and weird failed error of Windows antivirus. I apologize for not having realized before.

For other people who may encounter this difficult problem,  the key to find this error is (cut connections only for sites that use Letsencrypt certificates), is the strace /usr/bin/curl https://curl.se/ <https://curl.se/>

Here, the following line is the key:

--- Process 3100 thread 3124 created
 1668   16622 [sig] curl (3100) SetThreadName: SetThreadDescription() failed. 00000000 10000000

This indicate the drop connection. I'm talking to the antivirus people to solve this bug, I don't want to indicate the brand of the antivirus.

Many thanks to Brian for you help.

Well done for recognizing that failure drops the connection.
Boo to the AV co for allowing openssl client test through to retrieve certs, but just dropping the connection on download, without any message to say
        "Download with Let's Encrypt cert blocked!"

An indication whether it is already on our list would be welcome:

and if not, some hint as to its developer, so we can warn others.
