    I changed that file and it didn't really do anything, but
    I also changed another web configuration file connected
    with the project in a similar way and got a different
    error: instead of giving the 403 error it says "the
    certificate authority is invalid or incorrect." At least
    its looking in the right place for the page. I suppose
    thats a little better, but I still can't get the project
    open. I tried to find some place where I might need to
    install or trust the certificate like you would in
    Internet Explorer, but didn't see anything. I can't
    believe there isn't better support for doing something
    like this (actually, I can't believe that requiring SSL
    is breaking things in VS in the first place.) Right now
    my plan is to undo those web configuration file changes,
    disable SSL, continue developing the site (though some of
    the problems only crop up when SSL is enabled. doh), and
    in the meantime look for another solution.
    Further comments are more than welcome!!
