Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration (ESC) is this annoying misfeature in IE that constantly asks you to add sites to a list of secure sites. To disable it:

1. Start the Server Manager, which is the icon with the server and the toolbox to the right of the Start button.
2. In the "Security Information" section, click on "Configure IE ESC"
3. Make sure that IE ESC is Off for both Administrators and Users. Click OK
4. Restart IE
