 * I am a brand new user with virtually no computer code experience. I am having
   a lot of fun with WordPress and have been impressing all of my friends. I am 
   having one issue that I just can not get past.
 * My website is [http://www.midwestsalt.net](http://www.midwestsalt.net). I loaded
   the HTTPS for WordPress plug-in and checked internal and external https elements.
   My issue is when a user loads the site they navigate to an http page everything
   is find, then click to our https link which is an eStoreFront page and the user
   receives an IE security warning. The user then clicks back to the the very first
   link on our website and the page stays https vs. going back to http.
 * The two issues:
    1. Why would a user receive the https security warning? 2. Why
   does the https hold after clicking back to an http page?
 * I appreciate your suggestions.

 * I received this response and the issues were resolved by going in and adding 
   the https in each of these.
