No padlock reflects to show secure website since upgrading to firefox 4.

Since upgrading to Firefox 4 I can't find the padlock anywhere which shows that I am on a secure website.

A security Padlock Icon should NOT have to be manually set up by the user. It should not be an Add-On, it needs to be a part of the standard build package. It has become a norm and expectation of web usability.
Not including the icon violates two of Jakob Nielson's Usability Heuristics for HCI (human computer interaction) principles -namely that of 'Visibility' and 'Consistency and Standards'. [http://www.useit.com/papers/heuristic/heuristic_list.html]
As this is a community driven web platform, the feedback is apparent to reintroduce it ASAP.

  • User reviews don't show on websites when i use firefox

    User reviews don't load on websites since the latest Firefox update. They do show when I use IE.

    Hello,
    Are you facing this problem on particular sites??
    Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
    '''Note:''' This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to. To clear cache and cookies do the following:
    * Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
    * Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
    * Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
    * From the details list, check Cache and Cookies and uncheck everything else.
    * Now click the Clear now button.
    Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.

    safari, chrome and firefox cannot verify identity of secure websites after upgrading to 10.7.4,  apple engineers have tried multiple things including operating system with no success

    There are several threads about this problem, most notably one called 'Invalid Certificates' is over 4 pages long.  Many of us have experienced difficulty connecting to banking and other secure sites.  On my Macbook Pro, I cannot get to my banking site with any browser, however I can get there on my iMac using Safari, but get the 'Invalid Certificate' notice with FF and Chrome.  The problem started after the installation of 10.7.4.  I have sent a message to Apple--they will be dismayed to hear that I cannot complete an order at their online store!

  • Problem loading page for certain websites since upgrading to FF 29

    Since upgrading to Firefox 29, when I click on a link in my e-mail I will get a "problem loading page" tab with a server not found error message. This happens mainly when I get e-mails from BookBub.com and click on the link to go to Amazon to purchase books. I also get e-mails from BookSends that have Amazon links and when I click the links in the BookSends e-mails those work with no problems. However, the issue is not only with the BookBub e-mails. There are random links in other e-mails that will not work (Harbor Freight is another one that I've been trying to click an unsubscribe link in their e-mail and it will not work).
    I have tried clearing my cache, checked the firewall to make sure Firefox is allowed to access the web, checked the computer for malware but nothing has worked. Please help! This is very frustrating. Thanks!

    Please note that you have extensions installed that could be conflicting.
    *Trend Micro extensions and Norton extensions can be problematic.
    Can you disable those? Note that you do NOT need these to keep active virus protection. Norton is installed on your computer and is working system-wide.
    It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • I am unable to access my Bank website since upgrading to Mavericks (Safari 7)

    I am unable to access my Bank website since upgrading to Mavericks (Safari 7)
    I get the following error message in Safari before I even have the opportunity to
    connect to my bank's website.
    It works fine in Firefox and Chrome.
    Access Denied
    You don't have permission to access "http://www.tdbank.com/" on this server.
    Reference #18.a555ee3f.1382720248.13b74953

    I experienced the same problem where by I could not log into my Nationwide Bank account when I had upgraded Safari to the latest Version before Mavericks 6.1.0 on OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.5. I believe.
    I already had Trusteer Rapport installed as recommended by banks.
    Some Banks worked but Nationwide skipped the log in page and kept taking me to a page about Cookies telling me I needed to enable them but they were enabled. I just could not get into the Log In Page. Incidentally the Nationwides Cookies screen shot is of an out of date Cookies setting page - it is now under privacy in Safari preferences.
    I then installed Rapport again when it popped up as an option and bingo I could get to the Log In page.
    Took the plunge and upgraded last evening to Mavericks
    Same probelm occured cannot Log In to Nationwide.
    I have just stopped Trusteer Rapport and thank goodness I can get into Log On again.
    However when I logged out and tried to open another site Safari crashed with the following error message
    "safari quite unexpectedly while using trf.dylib plug-in"
    Chose Reopen and safari opened Ok
    I googled the message and that got me here - seems it is Trusteer Rapport
    So someone needs to sort this out I guess Trusteer I guess?
    Hope this is helpful
    Cheers

  • Since upgrading to Firefox 4 every time I open or refresh a page everything freezes and I have to wait a minute or so for it to respond again. I'm also having problems with uploading to Photobucket and watching things via Youtube since the upgrade.

    Since upgrading to Firefox 4.0 a couple of days ago, every time I open or reload a page the whole browser freezes. At first I thought it might be down to compatibilty issues with other programmes open at the time, but as the problem has persisted when those programmes aren't open I'm starting to think it's the browser itself and it's getting extremely frustrating having everything freeze every time I want to change a page.
    My other problem is twofold: with Youtube nothing plays at all because the toolbar with the play/pause option simply isn't there and I am unable to access the upload function on Photobucket because likewise it won't appear. I'm assuming this has something to do with Flash but have no idea how to fix it.
    I've tried

    hello, often such issues are caused by a firewall/security software which doesn't recognize & therefore blocks new firefox versions. please remove all program rules for firefox from your firewall and let it detect the new version of the browser again.

  • Since upgrading to Firefox 27.0 some webpages will not load when I click on them. It gives me a message saying that Firefox can't find the server.

    Since upgrading to Firefox 27.0 some webpages will not load when I click on them. It gives me a message saying that Firefox can't find the server. I have to click the link several time before it will load and sometimes when they do load it does not show the page right. It is like the HTML is messed up or something. I have tried everything I can think of. I started in safe mode, still did it., I removed add-ons, still did it., I reset Firefox and still did it., I completely uninstalled Firefox and re-installed Firefox and it still does it. I have tried Malware Bytes Anti-Malware scans and Avast boot-time scans and found no malware or viruses. I have found that those websites open the first time with no problems on my IE9 and they used to do so in Firefox 26.0. I'm at my wit's end. The website links are in my bookmarks and are used all the time so they are trusted and my avast is set to allow them. They range from news websites to gun websites and everything I have read says that Mozilla does not filter those unless something has changed recently.

    Try this as a first step;<BR><BR>

  • Since upgrading to Firefox 4, it "hangs" immediatly when using a Google or Bing search page

    Since upgrading to Firefox 4, it "hangs" immediatly then "crashes" when using a Google or Bing search results page.
    No problems with other web pages e.g. BBC, Amazon, Wikipedia...
    Also, no previous problems with version 3.

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

  • I can no longer attach files in Yahoo mail since upgrading to FireFox 4.0.1. I click the "attach" button and nothing happens - no file list to select from appears; nothing.

    Since upgrading to Firefox 4.0.1 the "attach files" function in my Yahoo Mail account no longer functions. When I click the "attach files" button nothing happens - nothing. No file selection box opens, no error message appears, no pinwheel of death, nothing.
    The "attach files" button is no longer 'hot' in FF 4.0.1 either = the "little hand" icon does not appear when I scroll over it. Other action buttons are still 'hot' ("attachments", "emoticons", "format", "hide bcc"etc.) - just not the "attach files" button.
    The Yahoo Mail "attach files" function still works when I use my Safari browser, however. So, it appears to be a FF4.0.1 issue.

  • What I would call "body" copy is appearing in an unreadable script font on web pages and in emails since upgrading to Firefox 6.0, what can I do to resolve this?

    Since upgrading to Firefox 6.0, some copy is appearing in a script font that is really difficult to read. I first noticed it in the body of an email I received, but then saw it on some web sites I was visiting. It also appears when I am typing.
    I am on a Mac.

    Also, here is what I've done so far to try and troubleshoot it...
    I checked other browsers on my computer and it's not happening, I went through and checked for corrupt fonts on my computer, I double checked my font settings in Firefox prefs, I did a google search and attempted all the things I saw listed as potential fixes and nothing is working.

    Since upgrading to Firefox 5 I can no longer view my emails on my ISP's web site, can you help?

    I haven't heard of any similar message before. In your "More system details..." it lists two different Adobe PDF plugins, version 8 and version 9. You may have a conflict there, especially if the older one isn't disabled. You could try to disable it here:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Add-ons > Plugins category
    If that doesn't help... Adobe Reader and the plugin have been updated to version 10. but Are you willing to upgrade Adobe Reader to see whether that fixes the problem?

  • Since upgradeing from firefox 11 firefox 14 wont translate simplified chinese

    when I was using Firefox 11 and all updates in just the 11 series when i used to go to sites like postal tracking from china (17track.net) it is part English and part Chinese. The Chinese parts were automatically translated to English. Since upgrading to Firefox 14 it wont translate the simplified Chinese even when using add on translators. Why was this not a problem for ff 11 and how can i fix this in ff 14.

  • The countdown timers at File Storage Locker sites (fileserve, bitshare, freakshare, etc) will no longer countdown if not the active page (Since upgrading to firefox 5.0). How do make it countdown when not the active page?

    Since upgrading to firefox 5.0, countdown timers at the various file locker sites will no longer countdown when the page is not the active page. I am sure it is not a site-side change as ALL the sites countdown timers freeze when not the active page. This has only happened since the upgrade.

    For reading only as Bugzilla is Not a forum.
    [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=652472 Bug#652472] - Higher setTimeout/setInterval clamping in inactive tabs breaks countdown scripts
    In mean time you can try opening those links in a new window instead of a new tab.
    Not all sites are affected as sites like Megaupload, Filesonic, depositfiles, Rapidshare work fine.
