 * I believe this issue has been discussed before but I am hoping you can guide 
   me to the fix.
 * I have clients with WP sites on three different hosting providers. I use your
   plugin successfully to help me keep local files.
 * I am running into this error on a 3.9.2 site on only one of the hosting environments
   when I attempt to authenticate my Sugarsync account to set up a backup job:
 * Sugarsync: cUrl Error: Unsupported SSL protocol version
 * Can you help me troubleshoot or direct me to a previous fix that I may have missed?
   Thank you!
 * Michelle

 * I have the same issue on my site I have been using free webhosting at hosting
   provider. I have mailed to ask this CURL issue with their management and I have
   got replied that they do not support CURL for cloud backup or other API services.
   Also they said that if I buy they service and get pro from free account then 
   I will be able to use curl php.
 * So the issue is simply with the webhosting company you are using and not wordpress.
   I you buy any webhosting then you will enjoy these services.
 * I don’t think any free web hosting server which is provide CURL extension for
   free.
 * I hope this will clear.
