When I visit any https URL, the "lock icon" at the bottom right corner of the browser should change to a "locked lock". It doesn't. This happens whether there are multiple tabs open or not. If I click on the icon, a wondow opens saying that the connection is insecure blah blah when in fact it is not.

WORKSFORME on build 2002030604, Win98. I just tested it. Reporter, what build are you using?

2001122106. I use tabs and normally have multiple tabs open. I tried closing other tabs just before clicking on the https link. Didn't seem to make any difference.

This is most probably a dupe of the (ever-popular) bug 101723. As per bug 101723 comment 50, "once [it's] screwed up, it's permanently screwed up" whether you close the other tabs or not. Reporter: does this happen when the secure page is the only page that has ever been shown in the window?
