Firepass and Firefox 3 doesn't work?

I upgraded to Firefox 3 and the Firepass access to my company's VPN no longer works. I get the popup box, but it doesn't go through the connect protocol.

 

Anyone else seen this, or have ideas how to make it work with Firefox3?

    Is there a way to connect to a Firepass without a browser in linux?

    Same here; running firepass 6.0.2, installed latest hotfix yesterday, and Endpoint Protection hangs on "checking client" in FF3 beta 4 at least

     

     

    One friend got in fine using FF3 beta 5.

     

     

    FF plugin version is 5600.0.60606.0646.

    Same here. It still doesn't work with the official release of Firefox 3.

    Same here. The Firepass plugin will not even load under Firefox3. The load box opens up, but nothing happens. No problem with the most recent version of Firefox2. I need to hold my clients from upgrading until a solution is figured out.

    The same here. FF3 does not work for the last 6 month (I started testing).

     

     

    The above url does not work.

    Hi there,

     

     

    FireFox 3 works great for me! But the trick is that you have to download and install a hotfix from the F5 website (downloads.f5.com). I understand that the forthcoming release of 6.0.3 will include FireFox 3 support natively (no additional hotfixes required).

     

     

    Cheers,
