Hi Hal.

I am having the same problem you are.  I have a server running IIS and I
can't browse to port 443 using SSL anymore.  It just started yesterday.
I've been trying everything I can think of to get it going with no
success.  When I try to telnet the server using port 443 I get the same
message you were getting that says 'Hallo, Wilkommen auf Compactzone
Stro!'.  Have you found a way to resolve this issue yet?  I can't seem
to find an answer anywhere.  Any help you can give would be GREATLY
appreciated.  If you don't have a solution yet and I can somehow figure
out how to resolve this thing I will be sure to let you know.

Thanks,
Steve
