It means the TCP handshake was done. So, it is not a layer-3 issue,
you can go to the site.

Bad ("Connection reset by peer")

Bad, bad. When it works, it should be something like (try with another
site, to see):

SSL handshake has read 3092 bytes and written 518 bytes
New, TLSv1/SSLv3, Cipher is DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA

I strongly suspect that there is a broken middlebox (firewall, etc)
somewhere between your client and this server. It broke the TCP
session as soon as TLD negociation started. DPI device, may be.
