How will I know if a connection site is secure? In Safari or Explorer there is a locking visual icon in the web browser window, but not in Firefox. Is there an add-on that meets this need?

The padlock shows only that there is a secure connection and does not guarantee that you are connected to the right server. So you could always be connected to the wrong server if you make a typing mistake in the URL and someone said that mistyped the URL. The lock feature has been replaced by the identity button of the Site on the left end of the address bar (address).

This has actually existed since Firefox 3.0

If you still want an icon of padlock also then there is this Extension.

  • How will I know if my mini ipod 4th generation is in charge? The blinking not solid.

    How will I know if my Mini Ipod 4th generation is in charge.

    I plugged it in - the blinking not solid.

    It's an iPod shuffle, right?  Small place with design clip - on and no screen...

    Blinking light means DO NOT DISCONNECT, because the iPod disk is mounted by the system.  EJECT iPod (in iTunes) before physically disconnect the iPod.  If you eject , but leave it connected, the light becomes solid.  (Yellow or green) light means OK TO DISCONNECT.  When it is yellow, the battery charge.  When it is green, the battery is fully charged.

    NOTE: In the normal conditions of use, flashing light is always yellow; It's supposed to be a warning.  It does not indicate the State of the battery; never it flashes green.

  • How will I know if a site is secure for transactions by credit card? I don't see any symbol lock.

    I have Windows 7. My old version of windows has always shown a lock when a Web site has been encrypted and secure. I don't see that now. How will I know that it is safe to give personal information such as credit card numbers, on a web page?

    Padlock is therefore more part of Firefox; It has been removed from Firefox 4. The padlock shows that there is a secure connection, but does not provide any additional information. You could make a typographical error, and have always been connected to a secure connection. The lock was replaced in Firefox 3 with the Site identity button.

  • How will I know if my Airport Extreme has the latest firmware?  And (not related) how to change the password used to connect to my network?

    I think I bought the latest version of Airport Extreme.  It is the unit which is rectangular, is about 6 to 7 w., etc.  I have some basic questions that I do not understand:

  • HP Envy 4500 - How will I know if I need to update the firmware?

    I just bought a HP Envy 4500.  The version of the installed firmware is MKM1FN1322BR.   The firmware on the HP site is MKM1FA1322BR.   How will I know if my firmware is older?

    Also, I tried to plug the printer directly via USB to update with the update of the firmware, and it does not work.  I try to use 'Start Again' several times, but nothing changes.   I disabled the wireless and even restarted the printer and it still does not work.  Local printer (USB) has been selected by default.

    I am running Windows 7 64 bit and the file being used is HPCOM_HP_ENVY_4500_series_x64_000_003.exe.

    Help, please.

    Jeremy

    Hi @judremy

    Version codes sometimes differ depending on how the Unit received its last update, so you don't have to worry about different codes. Updates can be received thought the site manually or via the Web Services menu on the printer itself.

    You have the printer connected to your wireless network? If so, the version you have had likely been obtained of the printer itself.

    Is there a problem you encounter that lead you to this mission of firmware, or are you simply being proactive in any ESC?

    If there is something I can help with that let me know.
