 | Senior Member with 231 posts. | | Join Date: Jul 2002 Location: Phoenix, AZ Experience: Intermediate | | Solved: Unable to disable Security Warning This is a new problem that just came up, This warning now appears when I try to log into 'COX Webmail'- "You are about to be redirected to a connection that is not secure.
The information you are sending to the current site might be retransmtted to a nonsecure site.
Do you wish to continue?"
I've been using this site for over 4+ years and have NEVER had this warning before.
Finally, my IE6>Tools>Internet Options>Advanced>Security>Warn if changing between secure and unsecure mode IS UNCHECKED
As always, thanks for your time

Unfortunately I don't have that 'string' (WarnOnHTTPSToHTTPRedirect) in my Registry. Any other suggestions?

It's the solution, don't worry. Follow the instructions. | | Senior Member with 952 posts. | | | | Well have you tried to change your browser? Also try to scan your computer with your anti virus or anti spyware. Your computer might be infected of some kind of a malware. That's why your bowser is is kind a redirecting your computer to a unsecured site. Or maybe the windows is warning you because there is a spyware that is must be transmitting information to another site. | | Distinguished Member with 7,642 posts. | | Join Date: Mar 2009 Location: Cyberspace Experience: Advanced | | Quote:

#10 | Phantom010, sorry I just 'scanned the article' and didn't read it word-for-word. I'll follow the directions in it exactly and get back to you.
On the browser replies, I've scanned my computer twice, nothing found or if it was it's been fixed. Also I did upgrade to IE7, I had so much problems with it I wanted to throw-up. Until they get tboth IE7 & IE8 working better, I'll stick with IE6. I have Mozilla but I'm more of a fix it right before switching to some other possible problems.
Thanx

#11 | Well, the fix for IE6 is pretty clear and should work. As for IE7, the problems have already been pretty well sorted out. As for IE8, the problems are only starting... | | Senior Member with 231 posts. | | Join Date: Jul 2002 Location: Phoenix, AZ Experience: Intermediate |
