    I am getting a "This page contains both secure and nonsecure items..." error only in IE, in FireFox it is fine...

    The page is:

    https://www.myprotein.co.uk/index.cfm?page=log-in

    I can't find anything on there that isn't secure? Help plz. :)

    Thanks

    Are you sure there isn't an image that isn't on a secure server (Maybe hosted elsewhere?)

    There is an image at the end from digitalpoint that is not on a secure server! This is making your page display this error

    from one browser to another - reporting different results - such as IE saying nonsecure/secure and the Firefox not reporting that - that's probably your browser settings on firefox. alot of times these error messages will pop up with a checkbox saying "Please do not show me errors of this sort again" and if you have checked that box in firefox at some point, it will display the page without reporting the error. I had this with a secure site i was working on for a client - he kept getting the error and i couldn't duplicate it on my desktop machine. It was only when i hopped on my laptop that i saw the error report, and sure enough it was a link to an non-SSL graphic, just as YFS1 and maro have pointed out. easy fix.

    The "Display Mixed Content" option under IE's security settings is most likely set to "Prompt". This is the default setting, so most users would have been prompted with the same message.
