    Hi guys,

    I finally took the plunge and bought an X61s - which I have now upgraded to 4GB RAM (running 64-bit Vista Ultimate) and 250 GD WD Scorpio disk. I'm very happy, but there's one thing missing...

    Since I upgraded the machine, I don't seem to have the Firefox plugin that uses the fingerprint reader to submit passwords to web sites. I believe it was called tvtpwm_moz_xpi.xpi but it doesn't seem to come with Client Security Solution 8.0.

    Does anybody know how to get this working?

    Thanks,
    Steve

    fingerprint reader works just fine with firefox, for me atleast...i have a T61, i would assume that the software is more or less the same. i would try uninstalling and then reinstalling the fingerprint reader software.

    The links are for Client Security, which I have already installed - the fingerprint scanner is working fine to log me in to Windows, etc...

    I'm just looking for the Firefox plugin...

    Thanks though... :)
