@SanomeH264 who r u talking to?

[SanomeH264]

because your finger is ugly and deformed.. reading it would cause the poor machine to overheat.

Our company has yet to find a biometrics fingerprint scanner that can not be beaten extremely easy, espically the microsoft fingerprint scanner, my 13yr niece can do it in under 10 minutes.

[kaikovich]

LOL after 4 months I get an answer;

yes I saw it on a friend of mine his laptop (he types in his password or uses the fingerprint reader).

Thanks anyways ;-)

[13pianist13]

u manually type in ur username and pass

[uberman360]

does it actually read ur fingerprint, and where can u buy it thats not online.

[knoxboy1994]

i bought this and it works great...the only down side is that u cannot password protect things and some websites u cannot use this with for example runescape

[1Ali380]

So what happens it this "Microsoft Fingerprint Reader device" fails???

What are my options then?
