In recent years in FreeDOS (under VM), I've only used Wget because Curl never worked properly for me. Yes, that old one is the latest one packaged for us (unfortunately), but perhaps we should bundle a newer version. Latest Curl is 7.64.0, built by Michael Kostylev (no surprise) with DJGPP, and it seems to work fine for me, in limited testing. Check the official site for download link (curl.haxx.se). But I'm not in contact with him, don't know any details, so I haven't 100% verified nor vetted the sources nor rebuilt it myself. So it's not mirrored to iBiblio for us yet. (Not that we're perfectionists or pros, but we try anyways. We never saw any such problems, so your worries about ransomware may be unwarranted. But maybe I'm naive.) I had already downloaded sources, and I did intend to weakly try rebuilding this, but things like this are rarely easy. Feel free to try yourself! >
