What causes the 'Show all Content' prompt in IE 9

I have a website that displays a prompt from IE 9 before showing the content on the page.  The prompt states 'Only secure content is displayed' and includes a button to show all content.   I know the user can turn this off by going into their browser settings.  However, by default it is turned on and many users don't see the prompt and think that the site is broken.  

From most of my research it appears that this is controlled by IE.  What causes this prompt to appear on my site?  Is there any way I can change my code so this prompt won't appear?


Thanks in advance!

From the IE menu bar ... tools ... internet options... security tab ... custom setting find the
options for "Display mixed content" and click disabled... ok ... ok

It does.  It makes a huge difference actually.  Thanks
I'm not sure if you're still monitoring this question since it's been closed, but I wrote an article on my blog about it... hope it helps!
