The request to Squid is CONNECT www.hotmail.com:443 HTTP/1.0
Squid has no way of knowing what the actual requested URL or protocol is for these requests. All it knows is that the browser wants a TCP tunnel to port 443 on host www.hotmail.com. Because of this the protocol is NONE and the method is CONNECT. If Squid is running as an accelerator for an SSL site then the situation is very different, as Squid will then receive the SSL connection, decrypt it, and then process the https:// request within it. In such case the protocol will be HTTPS and the method whatever method the browser wants to do to the site (via the accelerator). But this is only possible in accelerator setups, not proxy setups (not even transparent ones..)
