Squid can tunnel https requests when your borwser is configured to use
Squid as a proxy. The port to specify in the browser is the
http_port.

https_port has another purpose (SSL enabled web server acceleratorion)
and is not used for proxying of traffic to the Internet. You can not
specify the https_port number as proxy in the browser. You must use
the http_port number.
