Somebody should tell the Chrome team that. A recent version of Chrome changed the mixed content warning indicator from a relatively innocuous "padlock with a cross" to an alarmist "skull and crossbones". We got a lot of complaints about that (due to not yet having built the "ridiculous image proxies" kneath complains about above).

It seems like they may have thought better of this change, since my current version of Chrome (6.0.472.63) seems to have gone back to the padlock-and-cross.



I think it actually varies depending on the type of warning, some being considered more severe than others.
