 ====== Firefox restore SSL greenbar ======
-Okay, that's a simple one. Back when SSL were a rare feature, it got highlighted. As it's now neraly mandatory to have SSL support, the icon got grey. But they also had done away with the feature that showed the company to which the certificate was issued to, something characteristic to so called "Greenbar SSL" certificates, used by several sensitive services like banks, online wallets etc.
+**EDIT:** Damned Mozilla killed it once again. I don't understand why they force those changes. This article seems to be useless, for now
-Call me paranoid, but I **always** do check for the SSL certificate when browsing sites like eBay and PayPal. Restoring the name of the SSL issued-to party to the address bar is quick way to check it up.

-Go to ''about:config'' and search for: ''security.identityblock.show_extended_validation''. Then you can re-enable it by setting it to true.
