problem visiting gmail.com

[Zach]

Visiting gmail via https: forces ssl encryption.  Normally, when you
go to the gmail page in a non-encrypted session, gmail briefly
switches to ssl to transmit your credentials, then switches back to
non ssl once you've logged in.  However, forcing ssl from the
beginning by using the https: URI, gmail will stay encrypted
throughout your entire session.

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Https for more information.
