Have you checked to see if the firmware password is enabled? It is an optional 
install and could be deleted after setting a password, if it's not on your Mac I 
would suggest installing Firmware Password Utility and then launching it to see if 
it enabled. It is located in the Utilities folder on the install disc, just drag & 
drop.
