[Qt-interest] Distributing a QT app that needs SSL on windows

[Bill King]

I've found placing them in the directory the app/dll is located in is
the best place for application specific versions of DLL's.

Search order on windows is usually 1. local dir, 2. dirs in path, 3.
system dir.

So long as you don't install your app on the path, you should be good to go.
