    Is fingerfox what you're looking for? Not sure if that's just for the MS fingerprint reader.

    I tried using the information from this thread:

    http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=261780&page=2

    But afterwards, all I got was this screen:

    "Please click on appropriate extension package to install Password Bank support for your Firefox browser.
    Firefox 1.0 - 1.1
    Firefox 1.5 - 2

    To install support for Firefox please set Firefox as your default browser and retry the operation.

    There is no Password Bank extension compatible with your version of Firefox."

    Any clues? Firefox 3.0 is my default browser.
