Hello! I try to set environment variable https_proxy and download something through
wget --no-check-certificate https://_something_.com/_some_file_ but can't. Wget does not initiate a ssl connection to the proxy but instead connects directly to the target host. I found this problem in the wget 1.11, but version 1.10.2 work correctly. I use it on a Windows XP. wget was compiled from sources using Microsoft Visual Studio 2003.NET. Console output (ip-addresses are changed): wget.exe --no-check-certificate https://_something_.com/_some_file_ --2008-04-01 11:44:37-- https://_something_.com/_some_file_ Resolving _my_._proxy_.com... 10.XX.XX.XX Connecting to _my_._proxy_.com|10.XX.XX.XX|:3128... connected.

Retrying. Good by.
