Open IE, click on tools/internet options/advanced tab. Scroll way down near the bottom in Security section and uncheck Notify me when changing between secure and nonsecure sites.

There is a browser setting in IE6 to turn this off. Check out Tools > Internet Options > Security > Internet > Custom Level > Miscellaneous > Display mixed content. By default its set to prompt, reset it to Enable.

Just a note that Microsoft says that enabling this may make your PC more vulnerable to attack...

Send a message via AIM to kstatefan40 Send a message via MSN to kstatefan40 Send a message via Yahoo to kstatefan40 Send a message via Skype™ to kstatefan40
Also in tools>internet options>advanced:

uncheck: Warn if changing between "secure" and non-secure sites.

That should fix that problem. HTH,
