Does FF have a setting for only displaying encrypted information on a page, when the page has both encrypted and unencrypted information?

I noticed that a few encrypted sites trigger a pop-up warning, which says "You have requested an encrypted page that contains some unencrypted information. Information that you see or enter on the page can easily be read by a third party." I have not made any changes to my security setting. Furthermore, on another computer, I do not get this warning.

I've followed the instructions at http://www.duke-energy.com/Troubleshooting/firefox.asp for that site; but the problem persists. Remember, the problem only occurs after I log-on and it persists during my session on any of the pages.

That is this warning message:
Tools > Options > Security : Warning Message:
[] "I'm about to view an encrypted page that contains some unencrypted information"

If that choice doesn't stay deselected then see:

Oops . . . I was not clear. The issue is my wanting to see ONLY encrypted information on the page. I do NOT want any unencrypted information displayed since I have no way of knowing what is unencrypted.

The systray lock icon has a red exclamation on it. This not the case on another computer when I visit that site. See attachment.

When I switch to IE, IE offers me the option to view ONLY encrypted information.

Thanks for your kind response.
