OMG! Thank you!!

I've always assumed this was a limitation of HTTrack because that's exactly
what the Httrack Users Guide (3.10) says:

<http://www.httrack.com/html/fcguide.html>
Q: URLs with https:// are not working! 
A: HTTrack does not support https (secure socket layer protocol), only http
protocol

Please join me in asking Xavier to correct that User Guide Q&A ASAP.
