I tried out this one and the page it's trying to load is really 
https://www.mcssl.com/app/javanof1a.asp?.....

This fits the port 443 above as this is a secure socket connection.
This seems to fail while you are able to make regular HTTP connections
(which use port 80).

Same here. The requested URL is a https:// one
(there's a redirect):
https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-announce

Three things come to mind: 
- broken proxy setting for SSL connections (Are you using a proxy?
  If you do switch it off for a moment to check whether it's the culprit.
  You can do that in konqi's proxy settings)
- a firewall that blocks port 443 but lets port 80 pass through 
  (Are you using one?  If you do switch it off for a moment 
  to check whether it's the culprit.)
- broken SSL (probably not...)

I don't see a direct connection to your switch from dial-up to DSL 
for any of these but maybe you changed something in you setup...
