Is this one of those fantastically inaccessible key fob security solutions? If so, we have a solution here at work ... And am aware of a secondary software solution too. Don't really want to discuss BBC security on an open list tho so mail me if you're interested. -----Original Message----- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Tristram Llewellyn Sent: 30 June 2008 13:20 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: Silent logon Have you raised with this with the IT department, there may possibly be a physical token alternative that may serve as an alternative or so you only need to enter one password instead of two. As what you describe sounds like pre-boot encryption there are not many solutions to this because it is before any operating system gets going. Regards.

The problem being, that until windows boots up, JAWS does not come into action. Therefore the initial encrypted logon will have to be done without JAWS. On top of this, from time to time, the passwords require to be changed, so most of the time, it would be possible to operate blind! ha, but then corrupt the system when the passwords require changing. Does anyone else have this problem?
