Went to banking web site to log in to check status of account. The last couple of days an exclamation point in a red shield has appeared. I clicked on it and it stated that not all information that I am about to transmit will be encripted and available for third party viewing. I called the bank and they asked if https appeared in address bar and I affirmed. They came back and stated that things were secure from their end that I may need to contact Foxfire as they were not familiar with your browser so they could not advise. They did not recommend using their site until issue was resolved. Help please.

You can see a broken padlock if there is content on a secure (https) page that comes via an insecure http connection. That can be an image (Tools > Page Info > Media) or a script or something else. You can try to check the page source(View > Page Source) and search for http: to see if anything comes up.
