Why don't I see in the new version of Firefox the yellow safe lock anymore, for example by banking and other private sites?? The little yellow lock was always down on the right from the website when I logged in.
Goodmorning,
My question is standing above, I have download the new 4.0 version of Mozilla Firefox but I noticed that when I check my bankaaccount and email and don't see the yellow safety lock right down the page anymore, so why is that? The advice of the Bank is to look for those safety locks but when it does,nt show up I don't feel safe. Can you give me the answer???
Thank you in advance
kind regards,
Louise

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.
