.NET webbrowser security prompt

Question

I am using a .NET web browse control for windows forms. Every time I visit this specific web page, I get this specific prompt: http://screensnapr.com/v/fS15lG.png

This nag box disrupts the program flow. Ive tried the accepted answer from this post: How to disable "Security Alert" window in Webbrowser control But it did nothing to stop the prompt.

Is there a way to disable it through code.

FYI, you are not using a C# WebBrowser Control. You are using the .NET Windows Forms Web Browser Control. — John Saunders, Sep 02 '11 at 20:26

Not that i know of, the issue is some of your content is served over https and some over http, change the urls of the items in your page to start with https:// or better yet change them to //<domain>/path/to/item.ext note the omission of http: or https: so that the resources are requested over whatever transport you have connected with.

It changes to https whenever I set it to http, i have no choice. – Drake Sep 02 '11 at 08:45
make sure all your resources (images/CSS/JS) are prefixed with // instead of http:// – Mauro Sep 02 '11 at 10:15

It is a secure zone setting that you can override via installing your own IInternetSecurityManager implementation. MSHTML calls the QueryInterface method on the IOleClientSite interface to get the IServiceProvider interface in order to query your IInternetSecurityManager implementation, which means you need derive from System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowser.WebBrowserSite in order to add an IServiceProvider implementation.
