Ok, I bought a GeoTrust QuickSSL certificate for one of my sites, installed it and now all static html works fine via https://www.domain.com/page.html (for example).

However, I have a bulletin board running in /ib3/cgi-bin/ikonboard.cgi and every time I link to it via https:// ... the padlock disappears from IE (even though the page loads fine).

Is this an IE problem or Apache? Am I missing something? Any help would be appreciated.

I would check your images and any files that are called on. That usually happens when there's something insecure still on the page. Easiest way I'd think would be to view the source once the page loads up and do a search for http: to see what isn't secure.

Yeah, I'd forgotten to switch the image URLs. Arrgh. Oh, well. At least I know how to fix it. :)
