Please check that QSslSocket::supportsSsl() returns true.

Indeed, this is only for OS X and other Apple OSes. For Windows, you need to 
ship OpenSSL alongside your binaries, in your installer. Any export control 
compliance issues arising from that are your responsibility too.

That is usually good practice. Depending on someone else's server, which may 
go down or disappear without notice, is not good for business. A step further 
would be to keep files locally, so the functionality works even if no Internet 
access is possible or if it's misconfigured (for example, proxy).
