Firefox 7 hides the http protocol after the page is loaded. Other protocols, such as ftp, https, gopher, etc, do show all the time.

To restore the http prefix: 

  1. Type about:config in the location bar and press Enter.
  2. Use the Filter box to search for trim
  3. Double-click or right-click on the browser.urlbar.trimURLs preference to change its value to false
