Resolved the SSL Error above shortly after I posted it. Problem was that cURL needed an updated CA list. Used http://davidwalsh.name/php-ssl-curl-error to help with the fix.

To fix:
Step 1. Goto http://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html downlaod cacert.pem and add it to your PHP root directory.

Step 2. Modify facebook_authorization.php by adding the following code right after any occurance of curl_init();
PHP Code:
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_CAINFO,"C:\PHP\cacert.pem"); 
Where C:\PHP\ is your path to your PHP root.

Step 3. Make the same modification from Step 2 to the following file: admin\includes\modules\facebook\facebook.php

Once I made these mods, Auto Facebook works like a charm.

I didn't get a chance to try this, however, it may be possible to use the direct link to the cacert.pem file http://curl.haxx.se/ca/cacert.pem in the curl_setopt code.
