Fixing the Internet explorer Security warnings.

     Hello Friends after a long time I am publishing this post in my blog because I was busy to concentrate on my carrier. The last post of my blog was in year 2010. After that I completed my graduation and joined an IT Infrastructure monitoring company for gathering experience in system engineering field and now I have more than two years of experience and a lot of practical problem to explain so I am going to continue writing for my blogs with my practical experience.

     Internet explorer is the most common web browser that we use for accessing internet for corporate user because every IT company tries to maintain the ISO standards. But for personal use we don’t like to use Internet explorer, there are many other freeware web browsers like Firefox, Google chrome, opera etc. .But still Internet explorer is used for many web base software.

 

   In this post I am going to explain about a security warning that we get when tiring to access some specific web site. In my company we use Internet explorer for auto downloading of files from other corporate web sites. I got the warning during the auto file downloading process the warning was creating a trouble for user ,every time they have to agree with the “yes” button in the window so it become a manual downloading process for the user. Please go through the following lines

Symptom: you will get the following types of windows

(example of web site: https://www.vmware.com , https://www.Amazon.com  etc.)

 

Cause:  Internet Explorer interrupts the download and displays a confirmation dialog whenever it detects the use of mixed content on a secure page.It basically means that the secure (https) web page that you are trying to open contains images and other elements that are hosted on a non-https location. They call it mixed content.  Internet explorer cannot remember the settings that's  why it ask the permission again and again.

Solution: Enable the Display mixed content settings

• Going to Tools->Internet Options->Security

• Select the Security tab

• Click on the Internet zone icon at the top of the tab page

• Click the Custom Level button

• In the Miscellaneous section change Display mixed content to Enable

• Repeat the same for the Local intranet and trusted sites zones

It’s Gone so enjoy the internet surfing with Internet explorer( This post is applicable for all version of Internet Explorer )
