Https gives ERR_CONNECTION_RESET in Fiddler as well as .NET

Could anybody explain to me why typing this link in Chrome

https://secure.malindoair.com/MalindoAirCIBE/OnlineBooking.aspx

while Fiddler is running gives a ERR_CONNECTION_RESET error?

PLEASE NOTE:

  1. I have successfully set up Fiddler to "Decrypt HTTPS Traffic" and use its own certificate for that. I can see traffic from other HTTPS websites. Only this domain is behaving strange.

  2. I tried using HttpWebRequest class in .NET to request a simple GET for this link with no parameters and no headers, and I receive "The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a send." error, which is almost certainly that same ERR_CONNECTION_RESET from Chrome.

  3. I have tried inserting all kinds of headers such as Keep-Alive (tried both true and false) in my GET request, to no avail.

  4. I am not using any proxy when coding in .NET.

Any ideas?

I had this problem for all https-sites, and solved it by resetting the Fiddler certificates from the "Tools > Fiddler Options > HTTPS" dialog. After resetting the certificates it's important to re-install the Fiddler root certificate in Firefox and/or other software that doesn't use the OS certificate store if you want to debug https sites in it.

Stuck with same problem. Installed newest version of Fiddler v4 and disabled my antivirus software - it started to work.
