           Summary: SSL-encryption symbol with no real SSL-connection, only
                    SSL-iframe
           Product: konqueror
           Version: 3.4.2
          Platform: Debian testing
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konq-bugs kde org
        ReportedBy: Heinrich-Peters nurfuerspam de

Version:           3.4.2 (using KDE KDE 3.4.2)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
Compiler:          gcc version 4.0.2 Debian 4.0.2-1
OS:                Linux

When loading a page over a http connection, which contains an iframe conneting over a \
https connection, Konqueror indicates a secured connection. Due to the 3 \
announcements for a safe connection the user could think now that all data are \
protected. One can control only at the address or at the safety information.
I think it is not necessary to indicate a secure connection for the whole page. \
Straight because lately some phishing attacks take place. Other browser (e.g. \
Firefox) don't do this either.

Sorry for my English....
