This site contains both secure and insecure data....

[citizen12]

Hello All,

Have a problem on a site for kids using AOL's Aim and Bulletin Boards along with web resources accessible through a vb client. Have been working on a problem that reared its head recently, we think from a change in AOL's handling of the signon.

Problem: We are no longer able to automatically sign the user in to the bulletion boards after they sign in to AIM without an IE popup that says "This page contains both secure and insecure items. Do you want to download the non-secure items?".

We control the browser, online environment and links the user can follow and have tried a number of things with the security settings in IE to try and get the browser to ignore the apparent problem. Trusted sites, unchecked security warnings we could find etc, no luck.

Any Ideas on how to prevent this popup from appearing?
Thanks,
David

Note: Client machines running a locked down version of Win95 and ie4 as the browser.

It just means that the trusted sites you are accessing is trying to get data from outside the trusted site, it's most likely adds or banners. IE is just warning you about it. Just click on don't show me this again.

There is not an option to click on, so that the msg will not be seen again (win95 and ie4). To the best of my knowledge, I have added every site, there are several, that are accessed in the login process to the trusted zone.

Do you know of any registry keys that I can change manually, for example the key that would have been updated if I did have the fore mentioned checkbox?

Thanks for your help,
David

And if I added all the sites that were being accessed, even those by the trusted sites I previously entered, would that solve the problem?
