IE6 non-secure items notice

I am getting a "non-surce items" pop up on IE6 when using SSL. It only happens on IE6...yes, I know very old browser, blah, blah, they should update. The fact is though that some (albeit annoying) people still use IE6 and I don't want them running away scared from the shop because of this pop up.

What could be causing it - it can't be the 'usual' culrpits as this would cause the same problem in more modern browsers.

There is a module that shows a message to visitors using IE6.

I know but if you're silly enough not to have upgraded by now, which option are you going to take when told you need to upgrade your browser or can't use the site? I'll bet there will be a fair few who would just not use the site, losing you a sale

At some point you have to decide what you want.

I builded 3 sites for my company and we decided to let the IE6 support drop in favor to the possibilities that IE7 and IE8 gives us.
