My fingerprint scanner will not work with Firefox 4.

I used to be able to use my fingerprint scanner to log into all of the websites I use like Facebook, YouTube, Yahoo etc... But now since I updated to Firefox 4 it doesn't work anymore. The program that I use is called Digital Persona. How do I fix this issue?

Another user got this from Digital Persona.
"Thank you for contacting DigitalPersona. There will be no update releases for DigitalPersona Personal in the future. There will be no updates for Firefox 4 nor Internet Explorer 9. IF they work they work, if they do not work with DPPersonal, then you will have to decide to either keep DPPersonal and forgo Firefox 4 or IE 9, or vice versa. DigitalPersona is leaving the consumer market and is focusing on business applications. In fact, DigitalPersona Personal will not longer be supported after Mid-April of this year. We apologize for any inconvenience this might cause. Sincerely, Tech Team "
