    Just installed the new 3.1 version from HP download site. It claims to work with firefox 2 and 3 - and it does, however I am getting a weird problem using it with Firefox 3. Lets say I am on Yahoo login page, there should be a prompt to create login for this page on the upper left screen corner, but interestingly it is there, but not in same window. What I mean is, the blue square like prompt for this yahoo login page is lying in second firefox window which has NBR page open. If I scan my finger on the Yahoo login page, DigitalPersona says this page has no login on it, but if I go to second window (which has altogather different tabs) and click on the blue little square prompt, it pops the window for yahoo login page and I can register my scan for logging to yahoo. Same thing happens when I try to login using my fingerscan.
    So the bug is that digitalpersona is creating login prompts for one Firefox window in another FF window. This problem is not happening in IE7.
    Any ideas??
