In Firefox 3.6 I had an option in Option->Security settings to see the Security Warnings. This feature is now gone that I have updated it to Firefox 4. How can I change this options in Firefox 4 ?

The GUI settings panel for Warning Messages was removed from Firefox 4, those settings need to be accessed thru about:config now. Silly to remove that feature from the Security tab, IMO.

Type about:config in the URL bar and hit Enter.
If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.

Filter = security.warn_

See this list for a very brief description of those prefs - scroll down a bit to security.warn to see those particular prefs.
