SSL Virtual Directory in IIS

I have two webs:
wwwroot
secureroot

secureroot requires SSL and wwwroot does not. Both use the same server certificate.

In wwwroot, I have a virtual directory called securefolder which points to a folder in secureroot. The idea is to be browing around my wwwroot website and then if I need something to be secured with SSL, I put it in secureroot and refer to it with my securefolder virtual directory.

Unfortunately whenever I set the virtual directory to SSL, it just chokes and won't serve any pages. If I visit the same page directly through secureroot, it works fine. I've exactly mirroed all of the directory security settings -- secureroot and securefolder are the same in that respect.

Is there some fundamental fact about using SSL with virtual directories that I don't know?
