One of the best things about Mozilla was that when I searched for something it would give me a green or orange circle at the end of all the items that would come up underneath said search. I miss that. It always made me feel safe knowing I was on a safe site. Please help. Thanks so much.

Sounds like you are talking about Web of Trust which is working without problems and easy to look up.

Firefox doesn't come with such a feature by default, so it must have been added by an extension. You can check the about:addons page and check the section under Unsupported to see if you can find this extension in case it has been moved there as being a Legacy extension. You will have to find a WebExtension replacement for the extension you previously used.
