Instructions are probably at www.microsoft.com/technet/security. I'm
guessing you didn't check the box on the security tab in the IIS MMC that
says "require SSL connections." However, you should probably follow the
OWA-specific instructions instead of checking that box for the entire web
site using my humble instructions.

IIS probably *should* be listening on port 80, because people are going to
try to access that port, and IIS can't very well redirect users to the real
site unless it's serving up some sort of page that allows redirection from
the site at 80 to the site at 443. Otherwise, users will need to remember
to use https:// in the URL to access OWA, and people with old shortcuts
pointing to http:// will have problems.
