title: readfile() fails because of SSL
body: <p>I'm using readfile() to serve a download from Rapidshare's API through my server. This is the relevant code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>readfile("http://rs$server_id$short_host.rapidshare.com/cgi-bin/rsapi.cgi?sub=download&amp;fileid=$file_id&amp;filename=$file_name&amp;login={$account['username']}&amp;password={$account['password']}");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But when I request the page, I get this error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Warning: readfile(http://rs869l34.rapidshare.com/cgi-bin/rsapi.cgi?sub=download&amp;fileid=3457766962&amp;filename=some_file.rar&amp;login=mylogin&amp;password=mypassword) [function.readfile]: failed to open stream: Unable to find the socket transport "ssl" - did you forget to enable it when you configured PHP? in C:\xampp\htdocs\dl\downloaders\rapidshare_com.php on line 25
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>According to the Rapidshare API, there's no way to stop it returning an SSL response.</p>
  
  <p>Do I need to configure some special wrapper to handle this or something?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for any help!</p>
