Overview
Login Dongle protects your login by means of a security question
(AKA challenge/response) as an extra security layer. A bookmark is your login dongle.
How it works
- Go to your standard login page, fill in the form as usual, and click the bookmark.
- A prompt asks the challenge. Fill in the response, and accept.

- Only you know the response to the challenge, so nobody but you will be able to use the bookmarlet.
