How to stop Firefox from storing the CAC PIN?

I'm working on the configuration of Firefox to use an ACC Player. In the process, it seems that Firefox saves my PIN. For example, to put in place the .dll file to get Firefox to see the player, I went to view certificates to verify that they were installed. Firefox (legitimately) asked me my PIN code and I entered.

Then I went to a site requiring CAC, and while he asked me the certificate to be used (correct), he failed to ask me my PIN code and I logged into the site.

I then closed tab and went to another site and even once, while he asked for the certificate, it did not PIN code.

Then, I closed Firefox completely (and all other browsers) and rebooted, went to a site. It asking for the certificate but does not ask for the PIN.

I installed IE Tab v2 because some sites have refused to recognize the card in the reader. After that, he finds the map and asked me for the certificate but not the PIN code.

The only way to get Firefox to forget the PIN is to restart the computer, but as soon as you use your PIN, it is stored in Firefox.

It is an extremely huge security breach. The whole point of a CAC is that it requires authentication in two steps. I need the card and the PIN. If someone has my card and they go to a machine that has not been restarted I used, so they can access websites requiring an ACC connection because Firefox has stored my PIN.

How can I get Firefox to store not the PIN code? I should be asked each time.

Further investigation reveals that the question leaves ACC in the reader. If you have activated the cert with the PIN and let the ACC in the drive and then go to another site, it asks to cert, but since you already have the PIN, it will not ask again.

If you pull the ACC and again before you go on the site, it will ask the PIN code again.

  • How to stop Firefox from the start?

    Hey, I think that this problem is part of a bigger problem.

    I tried the suggestions in https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/989230 to the letter and yet nothing can fix it.

    For those who won't click on the link or the copy - paste. The problem is the following:

    During startup, Firefox opens automatically on my home page. In this case recently ever since Windows Update 8.1 on July 15, 2014. Also, what happens during the update, is that my ultrabook which supposed to have instant feature now seems to be ultra slow at the start and extremely slow when stopping down.

    Some programs have been installed except the 8.1 patch update and only different before and after that the update which is now Firefox start instantly.

    Solutions I've tried:

    (1) task Manager > startup > want to uncheck just Firefox at startup but not Firefox is here

    (2) open CCleaner > start-up > no even Firefox on it

    (3) searched msconfig > startup > go to the Task Manager > repeat step 1

    (4) went on http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx on the link at the top to start windows > No. Firefox has detected that either, 4-5 entry yellow and 1 red
    4A) have no idea what these means, what I notice, is that yellow could not locate the file, and the Red just here does nothing I guess.

    Here are the four steps I tried without success and I'm very sure that Firefox autostart is originally my laptop started slower than my computer pentium 4 windows 95 I have to the corner of my room.

    Further suggestions other than what I tried would be welcome.

    The problem seemed if being arrested since my laptop got another BSOD.

    I guess that this laptop just needs a foot in the head at work again.

  • How can I place a STOP button on my toolbar. I would like to stop firefox from loading a page by pressing the STOP button, but I can't find it in the toolbar options.

    How can I place a STOP button on my toolbar. I would like to stop firefox from loading a page by pressing the STOP button, but I can't find it in the toolbar options.

    First of all, if you have the menu bar show. (File-Edit-View-History-Bookmarks-Tools-Help), then you won't see the orange FireFox button because in the new version of FireFox button replaces the menu bar. You can believe that's the way you want by clicking on 'View', then place your cursor over "Toolbars" and check or uncheck menu bar. If you have the display on menu bar, click on 'View' then drag down to "Toolbars", then descend to the right and go to 'customize '; a click on it. Then, when the next screen appears, even if 'Reload' is not displayed on this topic, it appears somewhere upwards in your toolbar. (Mine was above the Google search box). Put your cursor on it and drag-and - drop to the left of your address bar. The "Stop" button should be left more than the button 'recharge' in order to get two separate buttons for these tasks. If the 'Reload' button is further to the left, then you get a single button that performs the tasks at the same time. I hope this helps.

    How to get Firefox to ignore the status of liaison visits when printing?

    When I print something, visited links are a different color than unvisited links.
    Is there a way to make the color even when printing?
    (without changing the story, or how things look on the screen)

    If there isn't a way to do that, how about this by adding as a feature?

    One way to do would be to create style rules customized for the printed output that hardcode the link colors for all of the printed output. Firefox supports two ways to proceed: a file userContent.css that you create in the folder settings, and a custom stylesheet applied using the Stylish extension.

    However, 'one size fits all' could lead to unreadable results or ugly on some pages. If an add-on that can do adaptive way would be better. I do not know if someone has created a.

Because private windows have their own history, the print should not reflect the history of your regular windows.

    How to get Firefox to check the compatibility of the add-on first, then ask me if I want to continue the update of Firefox? The update process currently only told me that an add-on has been disable after you apply the update to Firefox. Options > Advanced Options > switch to the update tab, "Warn me if this turns off one of my modules," doesn't seem to work.

    This is an add-on that does this.

    More specifically, what modules are always appear as incompatible after a Firefox updated? Firefox 10, extensions that are made properly shouldn't be a problem, with a few exceptions.

    Extension that contains a binary code must be compiled for each new version of Firefox. These modules are usually installed by applications on security Norton, McAfee, ZoneAlarm, etc..

  • How can I stop Firefox from sinking my IP when I use the proxy settings?

    So basically I use settings from manual proxy on Firefox from time to time to be more anonymous. These proxies are normally rather slow (but hey, it's the price for you to pay for anonymity). Sometimes I'll see a sudden leap of speed. I suspected that the proxy may not work for some reason any. So, I use a website that tells you that your IP address is to see if the proxy settings are really working. Of course when I update the site it gives me my real IP. I have check the proxy settings and it turns out that the browser was restored to use the proxy settings of the system (for some reason that is the default instead of no proxy). This happens randomly and why not apparently when I use the Manual proxy settings and it flees my IP every time that happens (and I never know when it does, unless I am very attentive). Is it possible to prevent him from returning to the system without no reason proxy settings? BTW, I tested the proxy in question after what is happening so it still works which preclude the possibility of the proxy does not (even if that were the case, I'd rather my IP don't Connect at all that the leak). So yes, any help in getting it to stop doing that would be nice.

    Hi internetman, in your system more than details it shows as active. It may or may not be something, but try to disable in case it makes a difference.
