Annoying Information Bar

How can i switch off EVERY type of information bar? The download ones I dont mind as much but the 'Allow Blocked Content' ones are really annoying.

I have designed my own homepage and even internal links require me to click the information bar, then click Allow Blocked Content!

Any help would be much appreciated :)

Allow Blocked Content

It sounds like you have a Desktop Firewall or something installed. You need to configure it.

No, since you don't tell we what kind of product you have installed...

Or is it just the content control of the Internet Explorer, which I dont know if you use it?
Start->Control Panel->Internet Options->Content (my OS isn't english, but you should find it...)

Hi,
I am having the same problem, but it only happens with IE, I don't have the problem with Firefox browser. I have disabled my desktop firewall and it still happens with IE. I have played about with IE security settings but so far not cured the problem.
