Security alert when using "longpoling" connection with SignalR, while in secure connection (HTTPS) | IE8

There is only one problem, I am just getting a "Securty Waring" alert in IE 8 in my SignalR chat application while in HTTPS

enter image description here

I am using longpolling as transport type when in IE8. Its working fine in all other IE browers.

self.Connect = function () {
     hubConn.start({ transport: 'longPolling' }).done(function (result) {
                ///--
     }).fail(function (error) {
                ///--
         alert("error" + error);
     });
}

When I tried fiddler, the security warning appeared with a signalr ajax call as shown below.
