"I am trying to install pine (mandrake distro) but its saying that two files (libcrypto.so.0 and libssl.so.0) are needed. I checked it and it is already there in the /usr/lib/."

When a rpm package is installed the dependencies are checked in the rpm data base. rpm does not go look for the actual libraries. So it is possible that the two files are actually in /usr/lib but are not recorded in the rpm data base. Use these commands to see if the files are recorded in the rpm data base:
rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0
rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/lib/libssl.so.0

If your problem is that the files exist but are not in the rpm data base then you can tell rpm to install without doing any dependency checks:
rpm --nodeps -i /pathname/pine-xx.xx.rpm

See:
man rpm

Unhappy still problems

nids-file: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.0.9.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I'm getting this error... I see that I have the /usr/local/libssl.so

Is there any easy way to get past this and have it look to that file?

Your file tree seems to be different than mine. What distribution are you using? Do you mean /usr/lib/libssl.so?

The first thing to do is to find all of the pieces of libssl. Try looking here:
ls -l /lib/libssl*
ls -l /usr/lib/libssl*
ls -l /usr/local/libssl*

If you are on a rpm base distribution then once you find libssl.so.0.9.7 ask whether the full pathname and file are in the rpm data base.
rpm -q --whatprovides /pathname/libssl.so.0.9.7
Then try:
rpm -qi openssl

Then you should have enough information to figure out the answer as to why you are getting the error message.

It was /usr/lib

I think the problem lies in the fact it is searching for /lib/libssl.so.0.9.7 when it should be lib.ssl.so.0.9.7a

"I think the problem lies in the fact it is searching for /lib/libssl.so.0.9.7 when it should be lib.ssl.so.0.9.7a"

Then you can probably solve the problem with a symbolic link. Try this as root:
ln -s libssl.so.0.9.7a /lib/libssl.so.0.9.7
