IE8 Security Warning in WebUI

Hi, when testing our WebUI on IE8 we get a security warning 'Do You want to view only the webpage content that was delivered securely?' before the page is displayed. When pressing 'Yes' the header area of the web ui is not displayed ('This page cannot be displayed...'). The navigationbar and the workarea are displayed correctly.
We use https for displaying the webui - are the areas within the webui called with individual url:s since we get the security waring?
Any help greatly appriciated.
Best Regards Eva

Hi, thanks for Your response. I see that this setting in IE8 eliminates the warning, but I would like to find a solution to the problem. I found the javascript function SAPCLT_SessInfo() in the page which holds this.sessUrl. Since this url uses http (but the call to the webui application is called by https) I think this is the problem. I found that this url is automatically created when EP is used for session management.
I found an article : [Session Management in Portals |http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BSP/SessionManagementin+Portal]. We have the 'complex proxy landscape', however, the solution that the article presents does not work since we don't use Web Dispatcher. Is there another way to correct the sessUrl?

Reader X - Under IE8 - Security Warning - Action unmemorized

Hi,
When I click a hyperlink, I have a security warning:
This document tries to connect to the site .....
I check the box Remember this action to this site and all PDF document.
But this action is not stored.
Have you any idea?
Cordially
PS: I do not have that message on a link that points to a page

I have both the .exe and the .msi files in the same directory. I ran
the .exe. After maybe 15 seconds of the progress bar running across
the program window, a dialog box appeared that stated, "This patch
could not be found. Verify that the patch really
exists..." After that, the installation aborted. I next tried running
the .msi directly (that is, without the .exe) by double clicking on
the msi's name in PowerDesk (the file manager). That immediately
brought up the "patch could not be found" dialog and aborted the
installation. Am I missing a file? Is the .MSI file corrupted or not
the correct file? If I rename the .MSI, thus removing it from the
installtion process, will the .exe do the whole job on its own?

Security Warning in IE8

The HTTPS page used to upload and manage files is accessing non secure resources (the icons) causing IE8 users to receive the following security warning:
"Do you want to view only the webpage content that was delivered securely? This webpage contains content that will not be delivered using a secure HTTPS connection, which could compromise the security of the entire webpage."
Users can disable the warning by enabling the display of mixed content, but ideally the Upload and Manage Files page should only access embedded resources using the HTTPS protocol.

How do you disable the IE8 ActiveX warning when previewing HTML files created in Dreamweaver?

All,
I'm trying to find a workaround to disable an annoying warning message in Internet Explorer 8 (IE8).
Explorer generates a security warning if you open a local file (i.e. one stored on your local hard drive and not the server) that contains scirpts or ActiveX controls (including JavaScript). Button actions such as opening a PDF work but the rollovers will not. Everything works fine if the user clicks on the warning banner, clicks "allow content", and then clicks "Yes". Since this file and content may be distributed to many people to run on their local systems, it would be better if they didn't have to perform these three clicks or modify their browser security settiings.
Previous versions of Dreamweaver supported a command called "Insert Mark of the Web" which inserted the following line of code:
)
Adobe removed this command, so the line of code must now be inserted manually. I've tried inserting it in various lines of the HTML code, but doing so results in the same problem: the rollovers work, but the button actions do not.
Does anyone know of another work around?
Thanks,
Garrett

I have not used this program, it may help you http://www.markoftheweb.com/

"File download - security warning" when running a report

Hi all,
Few of our users are having an error on their PCs when trying to run a report in Internet Explorer 8 with Adobe Reader 10.1.3 installed on their PCs. The error is:
"File Download - Security Warning"
Do you want to save this file, or find a program online to open it?
Name: rwservlet
Type: Unknown File Type
Find Save Cancel
Other users are able to run the reports. They have IE8 and Adobe Reader 10.1.2 installed. Any ideas why this problem might occur?
Any help is appreciated.

Hi,
what is the behavior if you leave adobe Reader opened and running before running the report?
Thanks, Roberto

IE security warning- asks to install Adobe Flash Player

We encountered this problem when running SWF created with Flash CS6 on IE8. It will show a blank page with a smaller icon at the top left corner first. Then, a dialog box "Internet Explorer - Security Warning" shows up, Do you want to install this software? Name: Adobe Flash Player. with options "Install" and "Don't Install" click don't install will display the SWF right after. Install does not do much as it prompts the same message when you come back again.
The file works fine if running from Chrome. I didn't see this message using CS6 when I published the file last time (~ 3 months ago).

I tried a different way and it prompts: This content requires Flash player 11.7. We have no control over our users' player version and our users can't upgrade player on their own. What are the features in Flash CS6 requires 11.7 so that I can remove it?
Thanks,

Why is a security warning is appearing in FF for my website ?

A security warning is appearing in FF for my website but the SSL certificate is brand new and has definitley been setup correctly. The certificate is issued by GeoTrust DV SSL CA

You can solve this probleme by downloading the GeoTrust DV SSL CA and add it to the SSLCertificateChainFile in your Webserver. With this config you tell the Webserver to send the GeoTrust DV SSL CA to Firefox. There is no security gab with this config since the GeoTrust DV SSL CA still needs to be validated with GeoTrust Global CA which is included in Firefox.
By the way, I had the same issue with IE8.

Downloaded JPG Files Have Security Warning When Downloaded with FF 14.0.1

Since updating to FF14.0.1, JPG files that are downloaded from the internet display "Open File - Security Warning" "Unknown Publisher" when double clicked to open. I can disable the warning for individual files, but would rather have it global for all since JPG file are a low security risk. They do open without the warning when downloaded within IE8. I couldn't find any FF security settings that may affect this issue.

I'm not aware of any changes in Firefox 14 relating to this feature, but there are dozens of changes in each release, so I certainly can't rule it out.
Is the E drive a partition on your hard drive, RAM disk, removable storage? Just wondering whether it might be treated differently than the C drive for some reason. But IE and Firefox should be consistent, since this is all about Windows' internal security controls...

How to disable IE Security Warning on opening a "local" visio file with Visio Viewer ActiveX?

Hello all,
Everyone knows that Microsoft released ActiveX based Visio Viewer for free and allow the users to open Visio drawing and view/print via IE browser.
The problem that I am facing is that some users are complaining about IE browser's security warning on "active content to run in files on My Computer".
It means that opening .VSD files from the network, internet, intranet would be all OK but if the user wants to open .VSD files from the local hard drive (or open it as a mail attachment, which will extract it to a temp folder), it prompt the user to select "Allow Blocked Content" EVERYTIME they open them.
I know that I can GLOBALLY disable this warning by going through Tools - Internet Options - Security section and enable "Allow active content to run in files on My Computer" but I hope that there is a way (or workaround) to allow them by file type or location, etc.
Questions:
1. Is there any way to disable those warning for all .VSD only while we still UNCHECK the option on Internet Options?
2. Is there any 3rd party Win32 based viewer which wouldn't have those restriction?
3. Is it safe assumption that McAfee VirusScan and Host IPS protection is sufficient enough to remove the IE's security warning feature?
Thanks in advance?
Young-

Are you able to host/launch the VSD file via an HTM page? In that case you can format the HTM page as shown below. This will trick IE into thinking it is loading the file off of a website. Commonly called 'mark of the web'.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

Importing fdf with js always get security warning

Hi, I have a form with some options (1 category as text with drop down and 5 radio button). The selection get the name of the fdf file to import. On import I get every time the security warning. I select the "Remember this action..." and I click "Allow". In the Settings/Security (Enhanced) the path and the file doesn't appear, so I set it manually, but I still get the security warning everytime. Files are stored locally in a different partion as the system. This happens on 2 machines (Mac 10.7, Mac10.8, Acrobat X, ACrobat XI, Reader XI).
this is the script
var A = "/Volumes/Data_Sharing/Projects/.../.../.../";
var B = getField("Category").valueAsString;
var C = "-okom-data.fdf";
var D = A + B + C;
var E = this.getField("Text1");
E.value = D;
this.importAnFDF(D);
The field Text1 is only a string visualisation for controlling
If I set an Import Data Event without js I don't have any security warning with fdf (but always with xfdf, xml and text files).
If you know what I miss, thanks for any suggestion

Unfortunately i dont think its possible.
You'd think a deployment could restrict warnings for a local intranet, or have an exception list.
There was another answer i did see but i would not recommend this at all. Even the person who put the post up does not recommend it.
http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5253971
You have two options, do not have java 1.6 on the desktop as this is the version that brings up the security warning. Or you can try the new
application with java 1.6 (As long as all functionality is tested). This will satisfy your new app, but not the applications that run of the older
java runtime environments. (we are going to test the application under 1.6 even though its not a supported certification by the vendor.)

Removing the "Security Warning" dialogue box on default when a PDF is opened

Hey
I have created a pdf document with a specific data written using iText Libraries. I have actually created a beacon that generates a notification sent to the owner's email when the pdf is opened.
The code is under OpenAction. The problem I am facing is that as I open the document, a dialogue box is opened saying "Security Warning" The document is trying to connect to : URL. How do I get rid of this dialogue box. ? I don't want this dialogue box to appear and allow the connection by default. I have tried playing with the Trust Manager - but that doesn't seem to be the solution, as am trying to execute my PDF document at a remote machine.

There was a lot of media fuss years back when it was found out that PDF files could "phone home", i.e. do what you want to do. So Adobe put this warning in. It wouldn't be much good as a warning if the creator of a PDF could choose to turn it off!
Document creators like to track people opening documents. Privacy advocates consider this a breach of privacy. The latter group shouts louder. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoning_home

How to stop HTTP Security warning message in transactional iview

When I am trying to access ECC through transactional iview then I am getting HTTP security warning message i.e. This page contains both secure and nonsecure items. Do you want to display the nonsecure items?
I think it is because portal is accessable using HTTPS protocol and when we access ECC then it uses HTTP Protocol.
Pl help to resolve.

Hi AshuGrover_in,
First, welcome on SDN!
> I think it is because portal is accessable using HTTPS protocol and when we access ECC then it uses HTTP Protocol.
> Pl help to resolve.
This might very well be the root cause of the issue, and if it is, you know the resolution - make all systems accessible via https.
Anyhow, to examine the exact cause creating this message you could use tools like HttpWatch or something similar and record the client accesses to the server. If you originally have a GET to a https address, the first http request caused by the original request will throw this message.
Theoretically, on client side, you can switch off this message: Search for "switch off http https warning" on google and you will get all possible instructions for the different clients. Anyhow, a clean landscape design with complete https connections is the aim you should have.
Hope it helps

Desktop and startup shortcuts produce security warning

I have a laptop running Windows 8.1 Pro with all updates installed. It's a domain member and the primary user was using redirected folders which worked well. Due to other reasons, the user's account was removed from the OU linked to with the redirected folders
GPO. open file security warning The GPO was setup for Desktop and My Documents so that when the policy was removed the files would revert to the local PC. For some odd reason the Favorites was not that way but configured to leave them on the server. I discovered
that only after the user's account had been moved out of that OU and the laptop rebooted and the user logged in.
So the user got her desktop and documents folders back just fine. But even though I changed the GPO to revert the Favorites back to the local PC of course it didn't even after I rebooted a few more times. So when the Favorites icon in IE was clicked,
favo0rites were still pointing to the server. I had to go through the registry and change the entries for that user's profile to point to the proper folder on the local PC.
However after I did that then something else showed up. Now when she clicks on the IE shortcut which is pinned to the taskbar or any application shortcut on the desktop or when she logs in and the startup program run, they all produce the Open File - Security
Warning box so she has to click OK for each one. I've tried looking up this problem but none of the fixes work for this case or I'm not going to lower the IE security.
Oddly, the Microsoft Office shortcuts pinned on the taskbar don't produce the security window but open up the program. It only seems to happen with shortcuts to programs that I create. Also I can take those shortcuts, copy them to another folder outside
of the user's profile and there is no security warning. So it's only within the profile that this happens.
Anyone have an idea what is wrong and how to fix it? I don't see how my changing the path to the Favorites folder in a few places in the registry could have done this but I don't see what else since it didn't occur until after I made the registry changes.
Jonathan

Why not use RegShot to capture registry changes after favorites folder was modified.

How do I get rid of the security warning for disc based Flash product

I have a project that use a program called Articulate to turn
powerpoint shows into a more rich flash product with audio, search
capacities, quiz etc. There are multiple sections from multiple
powerpoint files that generate a dozen or so flash files. The flash
files reside in an html shell to allow for navigation. The whole
thing is delivered on disc as a browser based training product.
The problem is that viewing flash from a disc results in a
security alert every time the viewer goes to a flash file. There is
an Articulate theme blog that suggests using a product called
server2go to make the disc function as a server to kinda fool
browsers on the local machine into thinking the disc is a web
server. My client wants the product to allow the users' default
browser. So far, although server2go is supposed to allow this, it
doesn't with the latest version of firefox (client's preferred
browser). I can only get it to work on a select machine or 2 in my
office with IE (server2go default) but it takes forever to launch.
I haven't gotten it to work on any of the client's machines. The
disc (auto launch) just freezes the machines.
Can anyone recommend a better server emulation product, or
tell me another solution to delivering a disc based flash product
without getting the security warning and without making the viewer
change settings on their machine to allow flash to play?
I understand security issues but this makes flash virtually
unusable for this application and I'm dead in the water if I can't
fix it.

Sorry, Ralph has already answered your question. If you need to get your security questions reset, you will have to contact iTunes Support:

Open File - Security Warning with Network-based Silent Install of CS4

I am attempting to run an enterprise deployment of CS4 Design Standard Edition onto a pool of WinXP Pro workstations. I placed all of the install files on a networked server running Windows 2003, and generated from there all of the requisite .xml files (install, uninstall, and override files). From this network share, I can successfully run a silent install.
HOWEVER. Multiple times (two or three) during the course of the silent install, I receive the same pop-up security warning from Windows XP (definitely an OS message, not anti-virus or other) that reads as follows:
Open File - Security Warning
Do you want to run this file?
Name: AIRApplicationRunner.exe
Publisher: Adobe Systems Incorporated
Type: Application
From: (server IP address)
I have tried excluding Adobe Air from the installation package, but I still receive the same security prompt. This is sufficiently a hassle to have to click through these prompts in a silent install. But more importantly I am unable to run the silent install as part of a logoff script because for all intents & purposes it is no longer a silent install (i.e. it requires user intervention). To top it off, I found when testing the logoff script the prompts are suppressed and the installation fails prior to the bulk of the installation (Photoshop, Illustrator, & InDesign).
I'm sure that I could run the install by copying all of the files to each local workstation, but again that would defeat the purpose of an easy, network-based install. In the past I was able to install CS3 in this fashion with no troubles, which of course did not include Adobe Air.
Can anybody offer a suggestion as to how to disable these security messages, or alternately, how to entirely exclude Adobe Air from the install package? I have found a VB script that is supposed to address the security warnings issue, but to run the script also requires the user to accept it at a security prompt.
Thanks in advance for any assistance!
-Dan

I'm now able to deploy design suite premium cs4 successfully.
The issue for me was that the AirapplicationRunner installs some useless software. I worked around the issue with the Airapplicationrunner prompt by removing any apps that are installed using that method. By "removing" I mean marking that app as "donotinstall" in the deployment file. The apps I removed are these adobe codes for adobe media player, adobe.com, adobeair itself. The below is from my deploy.xml file used for the silent workflow:
donotinstall
donotinstall
donotinstall
If you mark those three adobe codes as "donotinstall" the prompt never appears and the real apps get installed just fine.
