This has nothing to do with Cygwin, the same error happens on Linux:
$ perl -e 'use LWP::Simple;' -e '($r=get("https://www.geocaching.com";)) or
print "$!\n$@\n";print "$r\n";'
Connection reset by peer
Can't connect to www.geocaching.com:443
LWP::Protocol::https::Socket: SSL connect attempt failed with unknown error
error:00000000:lib(0):func(0):reason(0) at
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.16.0/LWP/Protocol/http.pm line 51.
The error message is slightly different than on Cygwin. I haven't
looked further into this, but I wouldn't be surprised if the server
simply doesn't accept connections from LWP and some other user agents
that are typically used for crawling…
