in firefox 3 the padlock icon in lower right hand corner of screen indicated an https web page. in firefox 4 this icon is missing-at least in my installation. is there a way to get this back in ff4?

The "Site Identity button", which provides a lot more pertinent information about a web site, was introduced in Firefox 3, and was used along with the "Security Lock icon"; that "Lock icon" was finally removed from Firefox 4 versions.

This extension will add a "lock" in the S-I-B display.
