if the ssl is installed properly on the server all you need to do is in ow_includes/config file
change the url to be https
you can use htacess to force ssl

Hello Tammy,
Thanks for the reply, that however does work when I do that, but then every thing that may be iframed into my site totally disappears and says the connection cannot be trusted. Is there any way to avoid having to remove these connections from my site?

Bobby Brown, page served over https:// with an iframe using an http:// URL: will generate mixed content warnings, thereby introducing a potential security risk, and should be avoided.

Ty, I understand the whole ssl thing. I will now just use this on our store instead of the radio station site. I'll use this on our media network

The problem with the error "connection is untrusted" doesn't depend on our software or the SSL certificate configuration. It is depends on the embedding resource.
So, if the iframe contains the link to the remote site which is not support the SSL connection , you will get this error "connection is untrusted". But it could be the situation when you paste in the iframe the link and doesn't get an error.
It means the remote site which is pointed in the link supports the SSL connection. For example this iframe code will not cause the error :
<iframe src="http://vienna-wv.com/images/tree.jpg" >
</iframe>
This is how the SSL works.
We could suggest you two ways to solve this issue. First- you have to embed the content from the sites which are support the SSL connection only. Second - to disable the SSL protocol.

a lot of site have ssl
and you just need change the http to https in the embed or iframe code
the simplest way to see if the site has a ssl
got to the site that the iframe is from and in address bar add the s
to get https and see if the site has an ssl cert
if it has you will see the site if it dose not you get page not secure warning
