Unfortunately, you don't get a PKCS11 library with the ActivIdentity
Mini Driver, it only supports CAPI access to the smart card. That means
things like Firefox & Thunderbird don't work. You also don't get the
app that lets you control things like PIN caching and which card readers
to use, etc. So a lot of us still have to buy ActivClient even for
Windows 7.
