There is the Profile Password extension, but it is easily bypassed by using the Firefox SafeMode. http://nic-nac-project.de/~kaosmos/profilepassword-en.html#PPFF

Another thing you can do is to set your Homepage to a website that you have a password logon saved for and use the Master Password feature. It won't completely stop someone else from using the internet but it will slow them down or make it appear they need a password for access.
