Does anyone know how to remove the Security warning in IE?

Hi There,
I am getting a security warning on this page here http://latinocellar.com (click on the blog link)

It doesn't matter if you click yes or no, you will still get the content so I just want to remove the popup?

Can someone help me do this?

I wasn't able to replicate any security warning using IE8 nor Firefox 3.6.16... do you have text (or even a screenshot) of the warning in question?

Here's how to disable the prompt: From IE, go to Tools > Internet OptionsSecurity tab > Custom Level button > in the Miscellaneous section, change Display mixed content to Enable.

I don't know if this affects the security warning, but your page is not formatted correctly.  Starting at line 110 in the "View Source", you have a second <head> and <body> section.  The javascript there should go in the first head section and the <head> and <body> tags removed leaving the div for the slideshow.
Hi Dave,
This is actually using an Iframe so that is why its happening.

I was actually hoping to make it so all security warnings wouldn't show regardless of the viewers IE settings?  Is that possible?

hmm, I changed everything in the wordpress part of things to be https instead of http so I thought that would get rid of the problem but it hasn't!??
Make a copy of your index page and then slowly remove different elements from the code, particularly those that reference other directories (e.g. images, scripts, etc.).

Removing an item from the code, then test the page after each change. You're bound to find the issue this way... when the IE warning stops, you'll know which reference was the cause.
ill give it a go and get back to it
Hi again,
Sorry its been so long, I had given up on this, but I now must somehow remove this error message and need to do it now.
I somehow thinking I need to resort to something drastic like moving the entire blog to a new domain, but that is last resort..
SO what I need to check is yobri: if all my elements in the wrapper are secure https then I shouldn't get the error message?
The cure is still the same.  You have to find that thing that is connecting insecurely.  Moving it won't help if you move that insecure thing with it.
