A few days ago I told you that I was not going to continue development on Fingerfox (SE), since the MS Fingerprint Reader software was incompatible with Windows 7.
However, someone managed to workaround the hard block of the installer. This means that it is possible to make it work on Windows 7, and therefore, I will continue developing Fingerfox (SE). Forget the old blogpost.
Click here to read how you can get MS Fingerprint Reader to work on Windows 7.

Hi Darren,
Yes it should be able to work, haven’t tried though. Be aware that the plugin needs a tiny version change in order to be able to install it in Firefox 3.6.
I will update it right awayI have just updated it, you can then download an unstable version (simply not tested with firefox 3.6) from this website…Darren

Thank you, I very much appreciate it. IE is awful, I much prefer FireFox. Fingerfox is great, Thank you.

I just did the “blogfield” workaround to use my DP-MS fingerprint reader on “W”7 Pro(clean inst), I love that little reader! However, even with the add-on Digital
Persona will not recognize logon-signin pages on many,many websites. I despise IE,only use it for “W”update. But, with it I could use DP to LogSignto almost any site. Is there something I,m missing here?

It wont recognize the logon page for Gmail, Ebay, Paypal,etc. Where it seems to have no problem with these same site on IE. What
I get is the little box that says ” This is not a logon page”

Those sites should work just fine…
Could you open a thread in the bugtracker system. Afterwards I will give you permission to attach a file, and then I would like you to upload a screenshot of this issue.

I really appreciate the help, unfortunately I am not computer savvy enough to know how to bring up a thread or the other things you recommend. So, if you are patient, and willing to walk me through the steps, as Blogfield did in his procedures, I would be very grateful. Thank you.

Start by opening a thread in the bugtracking system. I will explain further from there.
Click on Bugtracker in the menu on this website.
In the table on that page, click the “Application” link in the “Fingerfox (SE)” category.
Click on the button “New”.
You will be prompted to login/create a user.
After doing so, enter details about the bug, and send the information.
