When I was running Firefox 3.6 my Norton security Suite marked each site with a green circle to indicate to me that they felt that the site was safe to go to. They also indicated the sites that they protected with a yellow rectangle.

When I switched to Firefox 4.0 those markers no longer appear.

Really would like to have that sense of security back.

What do I need to do to get Norton back on the job with Firefox

Symantec have released updates for Norton 360 and Norton Internet Security to make them compatible with Firefox 4, for details see http://community.norton.com/t5/Norton-Internet-Security-Norton/Firefox-4-compatibility-hotfix-is-now-available/td-p/428894

I have NIS 2009. Is there a fix for this, or is there likely to be? Sorry if this is a stupid question - I am not very geeky but do my best :-)

You need to ask Symantec this, but I believe you need to install the latest version of NIS for it to work with Firefox 4.
