Title: Firefox question for all of you guru's out there

I recently upgraded to Firefox 4.0.1. It looks a little different than the last version, which is no big deal except that I cannot find the little yellow lock symbol that normally appears when you are on a secure shopping site.

So the question is, how do I tell whether or not the site is secure?

Has anyone else noticed this?

That badge is gone and the code to support it has been removed.

The new Site Identity button (the icon just to the left of your URL address bar) has more complete information on security.

It appears there is no way to bring back the lock icon with an extension. Hopefully, they will improve the Site Identity button to indicate more clearly the status of encryption. And you can always look at the address bar for https:.

[a little later...]

I checked further and there are a few solutions.

userstyles.org: Firefox 4 Lock Icon for Secure Sites This is for use only with the Stylish extension installed.

There is also a stand-alone extension for this: Padlock 0.1.2

If you already have Stylish, try the first script. Otherwise, try the extension, Padlock.

That's probably why I don't see it. I have WOT installed so that my kids know when a site is not safe. That is where WOT button sits. It must be overriding the Site Identity button. That sucks.

Ah. I didn't know that. Thank you.
