Hello, when browsing certain websites i often get an annoying warning pop up box which says some of the content is not secure and do i want to only download the secure content which whatever option i choose seems to make no difference, is there a way to stop this persistent little box from appearing. Regards keith.
Welcome
Run an antivirus scan
Download and run malwarebytes, they will be gone

If, however, you are going to sites that are creating and giving you the popus, your remedies are rather limited as they are coming from your own computer security.
I think it has to do with your browser's security settings. If you lower the security settings, I think they'll go away--but you might make your browser a little more unsecure.
In Firefox you can control the messages here:
Don't know about IE since I don't use it.

Open your security settings from the menu (or double-click on Protected Mode: On from the bottom taskbar) and change your settings to allow non-protected media to be displayed on a secure socket.
