Away from the debate about Akamai's issue that has evidently been out there awhile:

-We're wondering if anyone else is seeing the problem or are receiving unusually high volume of complaints about getting to certaincertain and unrelated https sites in the last 18 or so hours.
note that this is *by design*, as sean pointed out. the "fix" is simple: don't use https on www.irs.gov. any ssl pages served by the irs as served on different hostnames. as to why your users just started it, nfi. my best guess is that they weren't using https previously. -- coolhandluke
