How to disable IE Nag : This page contains both secure and insecure content…blah blah blah

This is probably one of the irritating nags that anyone would encounter with Internet Explorer (Including IE7).

This page contains both secure and non-secure items. Do you want to download the non-secure items?

One would encounter this message at least once a day while surfing web. I am not sure if IE team is really looking at User Experience perspective to remove this Nag from their upcoming releases. Today this dialog irritated me so much to the extent of searching for a solution to remove or disable this in my browser.

and I found a support article from Microsoft saying “It’s impossible” :-). Well nothing is impossible in the world.

This Nagging dialog can be shutdown forever by following this procedure.

01. Select Internet Options from menu

02. Select Security Tab and make sure Internet Zone is selected.

03. Click on Custom Level.

04. Search for “Display mixed content” setting and select “Enable” (Default is “Prompt”)

and you are freed from the above nag behavior forever. Happy Surfing with IE.
