Hi, I'm wondering if you are referring to the Plugin icon, which looks like a grey Lego brick. There is more about the Site Identity Button here - you can also see the plugin icon.

Hope that helps.

Can you attach a screenshot?

  • Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot
  • Make sure that you do not exceed the maximum size of 1 MB

You can get a possibly colored Lego block icon on the left end of the location bar that indicates that Firefox is blocking a plugin.

That explains the rectangle, but what is the key icon to the left of the lego block?

Hmm, don't know for sure, although some time ago, I do recall seeing a red key in connection with AOL mail.
