Such an adapter will not work because the FireWire and USB protocols are completely different and cannot be mapped to each other in the general case. I don't know what that adapter is actually designed for. Maybe there are laptops that have so little space that they share a USB connector for both USB and FireWire controllers, or that thing is just meant to make the FireWire power lines available for USB charging.
