May be I'm a n00b, but how do you say that he is behind a proxy and the proxy is doing content scan if he is connecting to the original IP of www.annauniv.edu ? I did the same thing from my machine using firefox, both http and https urls works fine but for https I have to add certificate exception. when doing from curl, with --insecure, both urls works. Also, it works when we use wget like this, $ wget --user-agent=fscku http://www.annauniv.edu $ wget --user-agent=fsckus --no-check-vertificate https://www.annauniv.edu To OP, Which browser you are using? IE6???? or do you altered your use-agent string for some other purpose?
