Is it just me ... or is it only international sites which use https:// login methods which are not working ... some sites are working for me but when I try and go to a secure part of the site I hit problems ...

It may seem so, but this is because most "normal" INTL sites are cached by Telkom, so you are accessing the local Telkom cache of the site, as opposed to when you try to login to something (i.e. forced "real-time"), which cannot be cached.
