SSL with 1and1

Got a big problem here. I've gone through, and read all of the threads about this issue (including the big 14 page thread). It seems to me that everyone is talking about editing their application_top.php file which has worked for many. The problem I have is that my application_top.php file looks like this:

<?php
/**
 * application_top.php Common actions carried out at the start of each page invocation.
 *
 * Initializes common classes & methods. Controlled by an array which describes
 * the elements to be initialised and the order in which that happens.
 * see {@link  http://www.zen-cart.com/wiki/index.p...als#InitSystem wikitutorials} for more details.

  $_SESSION['customers_ip_address'] = $customers_ip_address;
}
?>

and does not contain the line:
$request_type = (getenv('HTTPS') == 'on') ? 'SSL' : 'NONSSL';
anywhere.

The only place I could find it was in:
/includes/init_includes/init_file_db_name.php

Is there something in that file that I should use to get the lock to appear?

Here is the shared SSL address:
https://ssl.perfora.net/praiseandplay.com

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Okay, nevermind, got it working. Thanks.
