On previous firefox browser when I would connect to a secure page an icon similar to a lock would appear on the bottom right of the browser. However, on the recent updates I no longer see a icon indicating I'm connected to a secure page. I use to check to see I had a secure connection.

The icon no longer appears on the bottom, rather it appears next to the URL in the location bar. More info at https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Site%20Identity%20Button
