When i was on Yahoo and would go to a site where I would have to type in credit card information the security lock would appear beside the address bar. I haven't seen this now that I switched to Firefox.

The Padlock is no longer part of Firefox; it was removed beginning in Firefox 4. The padlock shows that there is a secure connection but does not supply additional information. You could have made a typographical error and still have been connected to a secure connection. The padlock was replaced in Firefox 3 with the Site Identity Button. Familiarize yourself with the Site Identity Button at the left end of the Location Bar:
