I noticed that some websites in Firefox 4 have the domain name appearing as part of the favicon in the address bar. Mozilla.com, Facebook, Apple and a few others. Is this generated automatically by Firefox? If not, how can I make a full sized icon for my own sites?

See How do I tell if my connection to a website is secure? -- you need to setup a SSL certificate for that.

That's exactly what I was looking for - thank you! My site doesn't need encryption so it will stay grey. Thanks again!

How do I turn off the Site Identity button?

Is the following the only method available?

1. Type “about:config” in the address bar and hit Enter.

2. Locate browser.chrome.toolbar_tips

3. Double-click it in order to set it to false.

This method disables all toolbar tips, but I only want to disable the Site Identity button (which is annoying).
