Firefox and Fingerprint Password Bank Version Mismatch
You will run into a problem with the Upek Fingerprint Scanning Password bank when updating Mozilla Firefox intentionally or via the auto-update feature.
This occurs with version 5.6 of the Upek Fingerprint Scanning Software when updating from Mozilla Firefox version 2.0.0.0 to 2.0.0.4. A similar issue occurred with the previous version of the Upek software after updating from version 1.5 to 2.0 of Mozilla Firefox.
To remedy the incompatibility issue you must edit your registry.
Locate registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Mozilla Firefox
There is a subkey under that it'll be called "2.0.0.4 (en-US)" without the quotes. (it looks like a subfolder)
Change it to say "2.0.0.0 (en-US)" again, exclude the quotes.
Within that key there is a CurrentVersion also change that value to
"2.0.0.0 (en-US)" from "2.0.0.4 (en-US)".
For the older version of the Upek software perform the same steps but substitute
the appropriate version numbers in the instructions.
Close Firefox, the UPek software will soon recognize the version information change shortly after you reopen Firefox or wait long enough. Let it install the module (if you leave Firefox open it will warn you to close it). Restart Firefox and fingerprint recognition should work with the updated version of Firefox. All of your page registrations will still be there and functional.

Much has been discussed about Identity Theft, user ID's and Passwords stolen or hacked, credit cards being used without the owners knowledge and so on. Now there is a safe way of protecting your passwords and identity online from being copied, stolen and hacked by keyboard trojans, using your biometric fingerprint and face recognition, and even voice, to log on to web sites. By simply scanning your finger or face or voice you can log on to a web site, log on to your computer, and even encrypt files and folders. No more worrying about who might hack into your online accounts or even your email. No more remembering passwords or using the same passwords on many sites. This is an exciting new innovation from myBiodentity and they have about fourteen products that are enabled with biometrics including email encryption, password manager, virtual disk, and many more.
