Disable “Security Information” Prompt

--Photo: Sample Error Message--

When navigating secure web sites you may come across an Internet Explorer box labeled “Security Information.” With the text: “This page contains both secure and nonsecure items. Do you want to display the nonsecure items?”

Here are the steps to get rid of this annoying popup.

In Internet Explorer:

  1. Select Tool then click Internet Options
  2. Select the Security Tab and make sure the Internet Globe icon is selected then click the Custom Level button
  3. Scroll down to the Miscellaneous section and find the option: Display mixed content.
  4. Select the option Enable
  5. Click OK, Then you will get a “Security Warning” pop-up. Click Yes
  6. Click OK also on the “Internet Options” window to finish.

    Thanks for the reminder! I had even forgotten about the ability to turn off this prompt for my new computer.

    What does that mean though when it says secure and non secure items. Also I’ve never seen a message like that on any other browser, so why doesn’t firefox ever display a message like that. Is it just a completely unecessary annoiance or is it genuinly warning us of a problem?
