I have a client who has a lot of web site users using Internet Explorer 6 on Windows. At the moment, the login form submits via https, and then the user is redirected to a regular http page afterward. In IE, we get this:

“You are about to be redirected to a connection that is not secure. The information you are transmitting to the site may be retransmitted to a nonsecure site…”

It happens whether the login form is http or https. The suggestion in some forums is to do this:

Instead of the 302 redirect, give a 400 responce, and a meta-refresh tag. <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=http://zzz.com/";>

I'll need to modify a local copy of Apache2::AuthCookie to do this, but I wondered if there are other solutions out there for this problem.
