I'm running an ASP.NET web site with SSL. All the site is running under
HTTPS only (the HTTP port is blocked). Whenever I click a link button
control on the page (or any other control that calls the __doPostBack
javascript function that is generated on the page by the ASP.NET) I get a
security alert saying: "You are about to leave a secure internet
connection". Clicking yes just normally posts back. When posting back using
a normal submit button I don't get this alert (although the same post action
is performed). The normal message when you really are browsing to an
unsecured page is saying something like "You are about to be redirected to a
connection that is not secure". This is not the message I'm getting in this
case.
The only difference I could think of is that the __doPostBack call the
form.submit() function explicitly and the submit button submits the form
implicitly.

I really need to remove this Security popup because they are incorrect.
Any Ideas ?
