Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[mribka]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE;rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041108 Firefox/1.0

On all Windows XP (SP1, SP2 or without SP and regardless if german or englisch 
OS) I observed that the access from the browser to the PID software does not 
work.
Explaining:
Using the IE and clicking on the link to get access to the sites secured with 
the PID identifier the software for PID starts and asks me for my Key.
Using Firefox the PID software does not start so that i get no chance to get 
access to the secured sites.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open Website http://www.gang-bang-party.de and press ENTER button
2.Go to link "Fotos und Videos"
3.Click on the XCheck Button
4.Click on "Personal ID Chip Zugang"


Actual Results:  
Nothing happens.


Expected Results:  
It should start the Personal ID software and ask for my accesskey. Then the 
XCheck protected website will open.

Clearing security flag, no vulnerability created by lack of this feature.
