this is a perfect spot for client intervention.
there is nothing wrong with your cflocation doing a fully
qualified url that is ssl enabled (https://www.) rather than (http://)
since it doesnt hurt, in any way shape or form, it shouldnt even
be a choice that they have to make.  i cannot see ANY way to prevent
that, unless maybe you set the settings on IE back to allow ANY traffic
in any way, and that would be dumb and unsecure... this is just dumb.
sorry dude.  are they this savvy of a client that they pay attention to
whether or not your cflocation tags go to https urls vs. http urls?
