Hi Magnus,
I had the same problem, and your answer helped me to get PostGreSQL
finally installed by removing the existing LIBEAY32.DLL.
As far as I could find out, my LIBEAY32.DLL had been installed by
CrystalReports 10 and it has the version number 0.9.6.101, a size of
657 KB and the date of the last changes is 09th of December 2003.
Obviously it is not replaced during the installation process although
the installation file is newer (but without visible version number).
After having installed the new dll file CrystalReports does not seem
to have any problem but maybe I'm not using any of the features
provided by this file.
Thanks for your help, maybe my informations can be useful.
Regards
Roland
