You don't want to get rid of it!  It's part of Windows' security system, just telling you that the security is on.  You'll get used to it.

Thank you for that advice Falkyrn, but I have just noticed the eye isn't on the tool bar it's above it so i can't do that.
I was hoping i could move it to the top bar. I will have to pretend it isn't there.

I can tell you what the Bible says about this problem but I doubt if that applies to computer menus Cheesy

If I hover over my 'eye' it comes up with privacy report, when I double click on it who is trying to gain access appears. It states that this is based on your privacy settings which will block some cookies. Hope this may just be your problem.

I think I should have added that it is always the same address in my case which is not Rootschat but Paypal.

Hi Celia,

I am sorry it did not help you with your 'eye'. I am certainly no
expert on computers. Huh I do hope someone else can solve this for you.

Kind Regards, Frances

I've been having trouble just lately with a security warning, saying that I don't trust Paypal!!  It appears every time I change screens within Rootschat which is very annoying.   Angry  Angry I have actually used Paypal before, so can't see why this has suddenly started happening!

Have followed Falkyrn's advice above to see if that helps, but note that the prefix should be https (for secure).

Incidentally, the "make donation" part of the Rootschat screen does not load properly at the moment either.  This could all be more of an issue with my (aging) computer and some McAfee problems we have been having, but thought I'd mention it in case it is more widespread.
