I don't want to send all https traffic DIRECT because I have
a virus filter through which request/responses go to after
the proxy and before the target.

I can workaround the problem by just matching the site, but
that doesn't solve the real problem, and before I release the
proxy to our entire Intranet usage, I need to understand what
is happening and fix that in order to prevent similar future
problems.

I just don't know where to go from here.

Help? Ideas? Anyone?
