On Firefox 4 there is no toolbar at the bottom of the page. Secure sites e.g. my bank under the previous Firefox displayed a padlock in the bottom righthand corner. Yesterday I wanted to buy an item online but didn't as there was no padlock. How do I now know a site is safe ? Thanks da1sy

The padlock has been replaced by the site identity button, for details on using it see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Site+Identity+Button

If you want to add a padlock icon to the location bar, you can use the Padlock add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/padlock-icon/
