475651 - Yahoo mail sign in seal disappears each time I open Firefox

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Toolkit :: Safe Browsing, defect)

Description

[mlmyers85547]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_4_11; en) AppleWebKit/525.27.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/3.2.1 Safari/525.27.1
Build Identifier: Version 10.4.11, 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (I don't know hardware platform)

Each time I open Firefox and go to sign in page for Yahoo mail my sign-in seal disappears, but this does not happen on Safari.  However, the URL for the same page on Safari the URL reads: https://login.yahoo.com/config/mail?.intl=us
To correct the problem I re-installed latest version of Flash Player; also recreated sign in seal--it still disappears each time I open Firefox and go to the sign in page for Yahoo.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Open Firefox (opens to Yahoo! home page)
2.  Click on mail icon at top
3.  The Yahoo sign-in page appears without the sign in seal
Actual Results:  
The sign-in page for Yahoo did not display my sign-in seal (a photo that prevents a duplicate pfishing sign-in page)

Expected Results:  
The sign-in page first appears without the seal; within 5 seconds the seal appears.  (On Safari it appears immediately, however)

Displayed my sign-in seal, a photo of myself, so that I know I'm on the official yahoo site and not a pfishing site.
