Hi, the TrustBar project is finally back on track, with a new team of 
developers. For these who are not familiar, TrustBar is an extension to 
FireFox, which identifies SSL/TLS protected sites by the certified 
organization name and `Identified by:` <CA>, or by a name/logo of the 
user's choosing (`petname`).

The team now work on several exciting extensions such as how to defend 
also users of unprotected (non-SSL) web pages, but this will take some 
time.

In the meanwhile, we have an improved version (0.9.97), which finally 
works nicely on both windows, MAC and Linux (as far as we tested); we 
also removed the `Hey` functionality which people really hated (but we 
learned a lot from it and a much changed version will appear in the 
future).

To install, download from
