 Hello,
 I wrote the following Firefox extension, that is compatible with the Tor
 Browser:

 Prevent writing passwords without SSL - Firefox extension
 http://www.informatica-libera.net/content/prevent-writing-passwords-
 without-ssl-firefox-extension

 This extension prevents user to type a password in a page served without
 "https" protocol: it disables the input of the password and highlights the
 password box with red.

 I wrote it for people worried about security and privacy. It's useful to
 prevent password sniffing.

 The source code is very brief and easy to be read.

 Maybe, if you think that it's a useful extension, you can include it in
 the Tor Browser Bundle.

 Thank you,
 F.G.
