The problem is that most web browsers won't do the SSL/TLS when talking to an HTTP proxy. Please assist with bugging the browser devs about this. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=378637. There are implications that they might do HTTP-over-SSL to SSL proxies, but certainly will send non-HTTP there and break those protocols instead. Amos
