SSL monitoring is not possible with the way WUG implements it's HTTP monitoring, they are basically creating a telnet session to port 80 and comparing data from there, since there is nothing to negotiate the ssl connection this will not work. However, this can be augmented with a simple vb app that uses the inet control to establish the connection.

We currently use IP Sentry in our production environment. Although we are mostly satisfied with IP Sentry, it falls short in its abililty to monitor hundreds of servers because it is not multi-threaded. IP Sentry has a lot of great monitoring plugins including an SSL/HTTPS monitor. Ipswitch claims that it is not possible to monitor HTTPS resources. Why then can a $99 product do this? Or has someone on this list figured out a way to do this? Also, does anyone know where a good collection of custom monitors can be found so I don't have to recreate the wheel if we decide to deploy WUG?. A good list of examples would help tremendously for things like SNMP monitoring or MRTG monitoring.
