Google Toolbar causing "Security Warning" on HTTPS pages
I installed Google Toolbar on Internet Explorer 8 (although I've seen the problem with other IE versions). (I also enabled PageRank, but it might happen without it).
Now when I go to one of my web pages that is secure, I get a security warning.because the Google Toolbar is trying to access a page on Google's servers using HTTP instead of HTTPS. Has anyone else experienced this or know of way to fix it?

I've narrowed it down to a DHTML menu Javascript library. The HTTPS page loads fine, but once I mouseover the menu and something drops down, an HTTP call goes out to the IP 69.192.12.20 for /js/200/addthis_widget.js.
I've searched the code and I don't see any reference of "addthis" and it doesn't seem to happen if you don't have Google Toolbar installed.

Strange. Also, I assume you cleared the temporary internet files too and tried to adjust the security settings.

Yup - I've tried clearing the cache and it's already on IE8. Chrome isn't an option, really.
Try uninstalling IE 8 and download it with Google toolbar from the link (http://www.google.com/toolbar/ie8/) that I sent you and see if that works.

What happens if you temporarily disable the Google toolbar when you are accessing your secure webpages? Does it work then?
How about trying Google Chrome?
