Problem with secure connection with token attached.

I have Aladdin eToken with my personal certificate on it. While token is attached to my computer, I cannot use Firefox while token is locked (FF constantly asks for token PIN) and cannot use secure connection to many sites while token is attached and unlocked (SEC_ERROR_BAD_SIGNATURE).

This is completely discouraging. What have I to do to make FF perform in correct manner?

Follow these steps to solve this issue:

1. Unplug the USB crypto token and open Mozilla Firefox 2. In Mozilla Firefox choose "Tools > Options > Advanced > Encryption > Security Devices" 4. In the opened window find and choose “eToken”, click on the “Unload” button on the right and confirm with "OK".

After that plug the USB crypto token back into USB slot. Mozilla Firefox should no longer repeatedly prompt you to enter PIN for the digital stamp.

It is some kind of solution - but it is not the best. First, certificate is used for SSL VPN - so sometimes it is possible that I have to use it with FF and web interface of SSL VPN gate. Second, it does not solve the problem with secure connections to some sites.
