I used to get a padlock symbol at the lower right corner either next to or above the time. the closed padlock meant you were secure open lock meant not secure. the symbol went away some time in recent? past. is there anyway to get it back or am I stuck with looking for the https?

The Statusbar is gone and the "lock" with it. Security information about a web page is shown by the Site Identity Button.
The old padlock could give users a false sense that a site is secure by not supplying all of the information about a site and only showed that there is a secure connection that didn't guarantee that you are connected to the right server. The Site Identity Button was introduced in Firefox 3.0 to show more complete "identity" information for HTTPS web pages.

You can add a padlock to the location bar with the Padlock add-on- https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/padlock-icon
thank you that helps a lot! I appreciate it.
