    I am running XP SP2 on a dell. For some reason many times when I am not leaving a https site I will get the standard security box telling me I am leaving a secure site:confused: after I click ok on the box twice it finally leaves. The only program I have added to machine in quite a while is Registry First Aid from this site, but, this problem was with me long before the download. Am I missing something in the settings for IE6 or would it be a registry key, or what, it sure is a pain:mad:
    Thanks People;)

    Tools > Internet Options > Advanced - scroll to the end - uncheck 'Warn if changing between secure and not secure mode' ?

    Is there not a check box on that message box for 'do not show again' or similar wording?

    Yes there is PeteC, I have always known that tick box was there. But I was concerned that activating that box with the pop up box going crazy on me may indicate some other underlying problem with the program. There-for creating a bigger problem with the system. Thats the reason I posted before taking that action to see if I was going to get a negative feed back warning me not to set it up like that. I'll wait a while and see if I get any warnings, and, if not, will activate it and see what happens. That way the BBS can know. And I will re-post the result.:)
