   Mislitel, I have DEP enabled and the DigitalPersona Fingerprint Software works just fine for me.

   I've not tried the Fingerprint Reader on Windows Live Mail or Windows Live Messenger simply because Windows Live Mail very seldom if ever requires me to enter a username or password after the initial configurations of my email accounts and Messenger "remembers" my login credentials so all I need to do is just press "sign-in". I am not in front of my PC with the Fingerprint Reader at the moment but once I get back I will check out how well it works with other apps.

   I am so very new to laptopcyberspace and windows vista that all of your comments I only half understand; however, my big question is, "is it expensive?"  pinkydo

   Would have like to have seen you actually setup the login process and a webpage login to see what is actually involved.

   I assume all information is stored encrypted instead of plain text in the system?

   Xepol, would you (and anyone else feel free to chime in) find value in me doing a follow-up video showing the login setup process and a few more things?

   So this is pretty worthless if you have a domain setup then?

   Some answers from what i know already to questions posted from reading MOST RECENTLY DATED articles & reviews. Yes it is encrypted now, originaly no. Even though they are encrypted MS defines this product as a conveince tool. Id does not add extra security to your system. It is for when you dont want others to see you login, memory, X logins per day, general conveinence ect. For extra security (bla bla bla) virus scan (bla bla bla) securtity software (bla bla bla) firewall. Its 14 - 20 bux on ebay as well as other sites. Its been out for a while now, They do still support it (point of the article), Three versions: white silver and one acually built into the left side MS keyboard (and a black one? saw picture while browsing but did not find PHYSICAL "buyable" black one).  It works with (almost) EVERY internet login page on a site in ie because it knows where the pass and name and required feilds are. It does not currently support domain logins (but maybe it will be considered now warren, that would be nice actually. Though u know as well as i do it coudlnt possibly support every type of domain login seeing as how they are designed diffrently for the verry reason they exist, security. Could plugins or addon apps be codded for other domain login types?~ im judging from the 3 or 4 out now maybe to yes. Maybe theres a larger reason why they didnt, thats another big discussion but yeah id like that too. Data Exicution prevention problem was identified and fixed by microsoft a while back and was part of a larger problem. I did see an article about it it was dated 2005. Yes there is no vista 64 driver (currently) I checked the website ^___^ I hope they fix that soon too. I have a 64 chip but avoided 64, sux cause i wanted it but you know why DRIVERS so i got 32. It works with other browsers yes but they are user coded apps to add support and to my suprise are widely used by fire fox and opera users and more. I hope that aswers some questions that i too had. I did order it since i had 15 bux (ebay) and log into 20 or so sites a day. I would love to see Toms wish come true (domains) since i use about 2 - 3 of those a day too. Though from the way he talks im sure its alot more ;) (it comes next week sometime im not a review writer but ill post somthing if the mood strike me)

   This is pretty cool, There are a few other Fingerprint readers out there worth looking at...

   It would be cool to have one of those on a laptop which some of the new ones have...

    Question on the MS Fingerprint reader: can you use two different people prints to access the same logon screen? Example: the wife and I both being able to logon to our finance screen.
