    So I use the fingerprint reader for all of my logons (email, facebook, etc.) and it works fine in IE, but when I use firefox it doesn't? It brings up the prompt to swipe my fingerprint, but rather than filling in the UN and PW fields, it fills them in blank, thus, not logging me on...

    Are the fingerprint reader and firefox not compatible? Or if they are, how do I configure them to work together?
