That is the expected behavior. Still browsers have problems with
this site?

The above telnet test indicates that port https (443) on the
server secure.elseview.co.uk is open, and accessible from behind your 
firewall. Since you can telnet to that port, your browser should
also be able to. Best way to test is to use lynx, with the -trace
option (look for the file Lynx.trace in your home directory after
doing that).
