How do I know if a website(like bank) is secured - usually shows lock
I just want to know when I go on a bank that has a secured site - usually it shows a lock somewhere on the sign in page. I cannot find it on mozilla's. I know https is a secured sign but I feel more secure using mozilla if I see a lock or someother sign that lets me know it is secured.
Thanks, Judster

So I believe would most people, banks, and most standards committees, but here is what you will see documented for Firefox.
If the width of the extended certificate text annoys you (one is about 3 1/2 inches wide), see

- (sorry that the site hides the text of the links, and the before picture)
"...I feel more secure using mozilla if I see a lock or someother sign..."
