XMarks Smarter Search feature on IE8 produces mixed content warning
I just installed XMarks to see if I can start synchronizing my bookmarks between all of my various locations and all the browsers installed. However soon after installing, I noticed that I would get the mixed content warning (the one telling you are downloading unsecure content from a secure page) every time I would go to our company portal page, which is always secured via SSL.
I double checked the sites using Firefox, and even IE 7 from another machine, and the warning did not appear. I disabled the Smarter Search feature in XMarks and the warning went away.
I have only installed XMarks on IE 8 so I don’t know if it is specific to IE 8 or is a problem with other browsers in general.
Update: As per Colin below this issue has been fixed with version 1.0.7. I installed this version and the warning no longer appears. It is refreshing to have such a quick response.
Hi Brian,
Thanks for the heads up. We just released an update (version 1.0.7) this afternoon that should fix this problem. You can download the latest version from here: http://download.xmarks.com/download/ie
