Why do I get "Only secure content is displayed"?

Every time I click to a page on here I get that message now. I have not changed any settings. It makes the site a pain to use only showing the first 20 questions or so. Also some clicks only scroll and require a second click for the action. Even this right here has the "continue" non functional until I go back and click "show all". Why?

    Yahoo has integrated advertising from 'secure'** servers into it's entire web presence...with an eye to boosting revenue.

    If you don't accept the ads, you don't get the full function of heretofore free services, like 'Answers'.

    Users meaningful security be damned.

    The 'notice' is from the browser, and depending on which one is used, can be set for various levels of alerts for 'mixed' content.

    Look in your browser settings; Privacy or Security area for those.

    Whoever was hired to revamp the site does not have a good grasp of all the things they broken, and the millions of folks who detest this new setup.

    For what it's worth, join with other furious users:
