Description

This module will collect credentials from Mozilla Thunderbird by downloading
the necessary files such as 'signons.sqlite', 'key3.db', and 'cert8.db' for
offline decryption with third party tools.

If necessary, you may also set the PARSE option to true to parse the sqlite
file, which contains sensitive information such as the encrypted username/password.
However, this feature is not enabled by default, because it requires SQLITE3 gem
to be installed on your machine.
