This used to pop up all the time when more people were using TC 4 :). What it happining is that IE gets confused easily when you redirect to to a non-default SSL port. This is especially true if the next page that you hit also does a redirect. The solution is to use the default SSL port of 443 (either that, or don't use IE ;-). > I dont understand why this works on FF but not on IE..! > I hope someone can shed some light on this.
