Security Setting on IE 6....

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Which security settings on my computer do I lower or change
in order NOT to constantly get all those irritating IE pop up windows every
time I click a link, open a picture, download something etc. I get that
"You are leaving a secure connection" one. I also get various other ones
such as "do you want to open this file from an unknown source?" and various
others having to do with my security settings being set too tight, I guess.
I am not overly concerned with alot of security as much as I am with these
goofy pop up windows all the time that take alot of extra time to click them
closed when I am working in a feverish mode. As mentioned earlier, I don't
surf much with this computer, it's mostly for work only so high security
isn't an issue for me.

There are so many confusing choices to do with "scripts" etc. in the
security tab of the control panel setting and I am afraid I will check or
uncheck the wrong ones. Can someone please tell me which ones I should
change? Thanks.
