A few versions ago, Firefox stopped showing the entire URL in the URL bar. It doesn't show the "HTTP://" prefix anymore, which has been driving me crazy.
On Security Now this week, someone wrote in with a tip on how to restore the full URL address:
- In the URL bar type: about:config
and press enter to open the configuration menu.
- In the search box, search for "browser.urlbar.trimURLs" (without the quotes).
- Set this to FALSE
