Uploading large amount of data from client to the WCF service through https

Question

I'm working on solution that uploads large amount of data through WCF web service to the server using HTTPS. My infrastructure design like this:

Client application <-- HTTPS --> ISA server <-- HTTP --> WCF web service

The web service hosted on IIS6, Windows server 2003. I use basicHttpBindings. When I start upload 2MB of data I receive: An error occurred while making the HTTP request to https://myservice.com/WcfService/service.svc/basic. This could be due to the fact that the server certificate is not configured properly with HTTP.SYS in the HTTPS case. This could also be caused by a mismatch of the security binding between the client and the server

But when I try to upload 100Kb everything works fine. Why? Please any suggestions.

Full exception message:

System.ServiceModel.CommunicationException was unhandled

Message=An error occurred while making the HTTP request to https://myservice.com/WcfService/service.svc/basic. This could be due to the fact that the server certificate is not configured properly with HTTP.SYS in the HTTPS case. This could also be caused by a mismatch of the security binding between the client and the server.
