OK, here's the fix, but before I post the link and snippet, if at all possible, for your own security at least, you really should consider using a current browser. Anyway, that said, here's the fix: http://www.labnol.org/software/ie-security-warning-for-https-websites/13388/ "If you would like to disable this security warning forever, go to Tools -> Internet Options and select the Security tab. Make sure the “Internet” zone is selected and then click the “Custom Level” button. Scroll-down the list of options and set the “Display mixed content” setting from “Prompt” to “Enable.”" On 2 May 2014 07:41, James English <james13english@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Windows XP, google.co.uk, internet explorer. > > On 5/1/14, Jonathan H <digitaltoast@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: >> What computer?
