http, https and http+tunnel

Hi list,

Minor annoyance :
- if a closed port 443 is encountered, it is reported as "https".
- If an open port 443 is encountered, it is reported as "http", tunnel :
"ssl".

I think that is a bit confusing, especially when trying to make sense of
stuff using automated tools, e.g. if you want to filter "https" - and
only get the closed ports, or vice versa. Don't know what would be the
best solution, but this feature has bitten me at least twice :)

Regards,
/Martin
