138001 - HTTPS site not accessible through proxy

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 102098

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.0rc1)

I recently tried to access some financial sites via Mozilla and was unable to
get to them.  I get about:blank after a 10-15 seconds and the throbber stops. 
There is no crash - just a blank page.  I have been able to use Mozilla to view
them previously but I cannot pin down a timeframe when they were working.  I do
know that they work when I am at home (Win98) and connect directly without using
a proxy.  I am able to get to some sites but not others.  I have included some
that work and some that don't so that perhaps differences in the sites can be noted.

NOT Working:

Working:

https://netbenefits.401k.com/NBLogin/

I am behind a firewall that is configured via an auto-proxy configuration.  NS
4.79 works fine with the same auto-proxy config script and I am able to access
all of the sites fine.  I reinstalled the Mozilla build cleanly, deleting all
files and creating a new profile.  I also turned off TLS and reverted to HTTP
1.0 and tried, to no avail.

The HTTPS proxy gets configured on port 80 from the auto-configuration script.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Setup auto-proxy configuration
2. Browse to one of the sites listed.

Actual Results:  Received about:blank page.

Expected Results:  Page to be displayed.

Attachment: Proxy Auto-Configuration file

This is the proxy auto-config file that I use (minus the internal IP ranges and
hostnames for my company).

Do you use squid as proxy ?

Verified. The non-working sites mentioned are SSL2 only.
