At work, IE8 on all machines first identifies the site, then the certifying authority, on reaching a secure page, like this:

Number of downloads: 11
 imagem2.gif (7.14K)
Number of downloads: 9
Now, at home, all my IE8 does is to show the padlock, like this:

Number of downloads: 9
What setting is it I'm missing that causes IE8 to identifies the site and then the certifying authority?
Please advise.

Not sure that an IE tweak, it might be a different certificate use (the external acces might be filtered and thus not connecting directly to the server, most likely using forefront or isa is the webmail is exchange based). I found this, it might you as it is explaining the difference evssl certificate and ssl.

Thanks a lot, you do rock!

Your reply put me in the right track and then I found this info:

Internet Explorer 8 with Windows XP – SmartFilter
For Windows XP users using IE8 as their browser, there is a little known requirement for the green bar to appear:

The SmartScreen Filter feature in IE8 must be enabled (Tools -> Options -> Advanced)

My home IE8 now displays EV SSL as it should.

Glad you got it fixed, i didn't knew the trick about smartscreen.
