This was changed intentionally, because the lock alone only indicated that your connection is protected against eavesdropping. To truly protect yourself and your online data, you need to make sure that the identity of the web site on the other end of the connection is verified.
thanks to silkphoenix and mbrubeck. i downloaded the suggested add-on. the explanation of the color-coding on the link provided was very helpful to me.
