When using Adblock Plus for Internet Explorer "Only secure content is displayed" notifications are displayed with Internet Explorer on some web pages, whereas without using Adblock Plus for Internet Explorer those notifications are NOT displayed for those same web pages.
Expected behaviour
Using Adblock Plus for Internet Explorer should not result in the display of "Only secure content is displayed" notifications on web pages where without using Adblock Plus for Internet Explorer those notifications are not displayed for those same web pages.

See my December 1, 2013, report, here:

That report was posted at the Adblock Plus Bug reports forum, but there was no response by the Adblock Plus team and for some reason the topic was moved from the Bug reports forum to the Adblock Plus for Internet Explorer forum.

The issue was that we were redirecting some requests to res:// URLs, which was causing the above message to appear on sites loaded through HTTPS. Fixed in Devbuild 1.2.
That's the Internet Explorer variant of a mixed content warning. Oleksandr, any idea what is being considered insecure content here - our element hiding styles maybe? Or is it about the requests we block?
