Maybe a stupid question, do you need to use a vpn when downloading from drunkenslug? Or is it secure to download without one?

They have an SSL connection option, which I've personally been using for about a year now with no VPN. I believe most indexers don't like VPNs, but I could be wrong

How do I use the SSL connection?

Use the ssl port

yes like the other guy said, use the SSL port provided to you by the indexer. Usually 553 or something similar
