How can I tell when the site I'm visiting is secured? I'm used to seeing a lock on my heading. I like my new Firefox!

When I'm on a website and am asked for a credit card or I go to my bank's website and need to enter my checking information, how does Firefox indicate that the information is secure. Does Firefox have an icon of some sort?

The Statusbar is gone and the "lock" with it, as of Firefox 4.0. Security information about a web page is shown by the Site Identity Button.
The old padlock could give users a false sense that a site is secure by not supplying all of the information about a site and only showed that there is a secure connection that didn't guarantee that you are connected to the right server. The Site Identity Button was introduced in Firefox 3.0 to show more complete "identity" information for HTTPS web pages.

You can add a padlock to the location bar with the Padlock add-on- https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/padlock-icon
