I have been configuring and Squid proxy (2.3.STABLE3) and have been able
to get https (or SSL) working for Netscape and IE4 without much effort,
but it wont work under IE5, and i dont get an error, it just never
response.

In the access log, the request seems normal but shows 0 0 for data, no
nothing is being returned.

Using tcpdump the requests are this:

Netscape 4.7:
  CONNECT www.anz.com:443 HTTP/1.0
  User-Agent: Mozilla/4.7 [en] (WinNT; I)

Response:
  HTTP/1.0 200 Connection established
  <Encrypted gibberish deleted>

IE5:
  CONNECT www.anz.com:443 HTTP/1.1
  User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0)
  Host: www.anz.com
  Content-Length: 0
  Pragma: no-cache

Response:
  Nada ...

He thinks its because of the extra stuff in the HTTP requests that IE 5
has.

Any help is greatly appreciated as this is very frustrating.

Thanks

Glen
