It quite simply dies when trying to retrieve: https://www.whatsyourriskscore.info

I'm not exactly sure what is going on, but I've traced it to line 206 of 
http.pm:

            # Since this just writes out the header block it should 
almost
            # always succeed to send the whole buffer in a single write 
call.
            my $n = $socket->syswrite($req_buf, length($req_buf));


That goes to SSL.pm and seems to fail or stop on this line:

$written = Net::SSLeay::write_partial( $ssl,$offset,$length,$$buffer );



Ex. to reproduce:
use LWP::UserAgent;
my $ua = new LWP::UserAgent();
my $request = HTTP::Request-
>new('GET','https://www.whatsyourriskscore.info/');
my $response = $ua->request($request);
print 'CODE: ', $response->code, "\n";
