Shortcut for "select visible pixels"?

CS3 had a command when you right-clicked on a layer in the layermenu: "Select visible pixels", but it's gone in CS4. A Mac-user showed me how a command-click on a layer selected visible pixels, but it doesn't work with cntrl, alt or shift on my Win7/CS4-PC. There is neither any choice for this command on the select-menu. Does anybody have any suggestions?

    Ctrl+clicking on the layer thumbnail works just make sure that you do it on the thumbnail itself

    Ah, many thanks, it was the "click on the layer-icon"-part the other explanations didn't mention.
