Since installing Firefox update today, 11/11/2011, when entering secure web sites I no longer have the display of a padlock. I still have Https. I am wondering if the security of these sties is still OK.

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
