The virus filter probably isn't doing anything on https traffic anyway .
If it is, I'd like to know how. I generally set a squid always_direct ACL
for https traffic to bypass parent VirusWalls if there is not some other
reason to pass the traffic upstream.

But, I understand your not wanting a "wide open" port 443.
