I think you would need to code your own browser to do that..I tried to make a browse, i gave up as i have no idea how to make a browser from scratch.

Umm creating "your own advanSed web browser" is 100,000x harder than you realize. If you really really wanted to go that route you'll HAVE to wait until .Net 2.0 because you can drop an IE control into your app and then only have to code your own URL address bar.

 

IIS7 will have a way to push all users to the HTTPS site, it might be possible in IIS6 already but I haven't played with it much.

 

Or if you need a simplier solution now, simply code your own FireFox plugin to do this for you, when a url is encountered rewrite the URL to HTTPS, and if that url is not accessible spit out a window giving yourself an option to "use the unsecure HTTP or cancel".

 

I should point out that a quick fix is to take your front page (either classic ASP or ASP.Net) and have it check the url and forward the user to HTTPS. If your using a template based system then in your header you could code the address check and foward the user to the HTTPS page.

 

Finally I'd like to point out it sounds like you've been drinking TOO MUCH paranoia koolaid. HTTPS image browsing?! Don't be silly!

 

Every checkout app on the net uses HTTPS now, who cares if you "surf" as HTTP. Perhaps you should jump on the IPv6 bandwagon where ALL communicated is mandatory encrypted.
