No more security warnings

Question:
Q. Help! I'm getting utterly fed up with all the security warnings in Web on my Nokia smartphone. For example, “You are leaving a secure page. Continue?”. Over and over again. Talk about living in a nanny state! Is there a way to upgrade Web so that it doesn't keep nagging me?
Answer:
A. I quite agree. Nokia has users' best interests at heart and the warnings are, theoretically, valid. However, in the real world and, especially, for power users, the warnings are simply annoying. Luckily, there's a little-known setting that will hide the messages.
- In Web on any S60 3rd Edition phone, go into 'Settings>General'
- Scroll down to the setting 'Security warnings'.
- Change it to read 'Hide'.
Job done, and you shouldn't be bothered again!
