Note: These steps are applicable if you are using Internet Explorer (version 9); steps required for other versions of Internet Explorer
or other browsers may differ:

Continue to this website (not recommended) .
The connection is made, and HTTPS Echo sends a page with identification details to your browser, confirming that the connection
has been made successfully. It is typical for most of the strings to be empty, as shown.
