I'm not saying that you or I put them there, I am saying that others 
do.  Lenovo, Acer, and many other OEMs still distribute out of date 
versions. 
Given the available disk size saving 20KB in a DLL is not worth it and 
if you have to ship your own OpenSSL DLLs anyway, what have you saved?  
Nothing.
