Why does a little padlock icon [] appear next to some of the links?

This is an indication that the page uses a secure protocol known as SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) to send information back and forth between your computer and the MiniSun web site.
MiniSun is dedicated to protecting your personal information, and the use of SSL protects your data and enforces our privacy policy.

Why do I get a warning message about "secure and non-secure items"?

This is due to some of the banner advertisements being hosted from a site other than Minisun.com.

Unfortunately, advertising is a necessary evil, and while we do not welcome the presence of advertisements on our web site, we ourselves need to advertise.

If you are using Internet Explorer and wish to turn off this warning, please follow the instructions below:

1. Open Internet Explorer and click Tools and then Internet Options.
2. Click the Security tab.
3. Click the Internet icon and then click the Custom Level button.
4. Scroll down to the miscellaneous section and then find display mixed content.
5. Click the disable button to prevent this message from appearing again. Alternatively you can select enable to prevent the advertisements from being displayed. However, you will still see a white box with "Navigation Cancelled" written in it.
