Where is the padlock that used to be in bottom right corner of my Yahoo screen?

I use Yahoo as home page & before downloading Firefox 4 I used to get a padlock icon in bottom right corner of screen when logging into my banks, credit card companies, etc. While I still see 'https' it was also reassuring to see the padlock there each time. There is now the a Fox icon in its place and no sign of a padlock. Has that facility been taken away? Am I missing it somewhere else in another format? I also lost Trusteer Rapport but have now re-installed. I've never lost things before with Mozilla downloads/updates. Thank you for your help.

The status bar was redesigned, so now you use the area to the left of the address (green, blue, or plain) to check whether the site is secure.

Other discussions about this change mention an add-on you can use if you really prefer seeing a lock:
