SSL handshake failed: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host

I faced this issue on various interactions with TortoiseSVN, namely when opening the Repo-Browser or when going to switch to from trunk to branch or vice-versa. Moreover, this error was only shown after a really long period of time (at least it felt that way).

Searching for advice on various forums didn't help (or better: were mostly misleading), so after I found the (pretty dumb) reason, I decided to post it here.

In my case it was the proxy setting (TortoiseSVN/Settings -> Network) or more precisely I once entered a proxy server in order to get access to an external repository and after that I got the above error while trying to access repositories on the intranet.
The solution, quite clearly, was just to disable the proxy server.

Hope this helps someone to solve the same issue faster than me :-)
