I no longer get a warning on entering or leaving a secure site and cannot find where to enable it. Is it just gone?
I am using the latest version of Firefox. Version 7 always provided that warning on entering and leaving a secure web site. I always looked for it when doing online banking.

The settings for the warning messages have been removed from the user interface (Bug 513166).
You need to change the related security.warn_* prefs directly on the about:config page.
Filter: security.warn
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.
- Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
- Preferences that have been modified show as bold (user set).
- Preferences can be reset to the default via the right-click context menu if they are user set
- Preferences can be changed via the right-click context menu: Modify (String or Integer) or Toggle (Boolean)

Worked great. Many Thanks.
