Rating:  - Eikon Digital Privacy Manager usb fingerprint reader
This product works very well for my needs. I use it to access web sites that require a PW. This little device saves a lot of time looking up PW and log on IDs. Only complaint was that I did not want to use it to log on to windows when I stat my computer. The directions for skiping this step were not all that clear.
Rating:  - Easy to setup and use
The Eikon fingerprint reader is easy to install and use. I bought it to use with vista 64 bit. My old MS reader doesn't have drivers for 64 bit windows.
This works great on my system.One problem is it won't log in on Roboform
because it is not a windows log.So far it works on every thing else.

Sometimes it does' work and you have to reboot.Does not work with firefox.Does not work with anything but Internet Explorer.I like Microsofts a lot better but it wont work with 64 bit.Guess I'm stuck with this generic reader.I wished it work with Microsoft Money.

The fingerprint reader works well. There are ocassions when my screen freezes up but for the most part it works well.
Rating: - A nice solution to password concerns
I caused myself a few problems when I installed this device two weeks ago, but they're all straightened out now. More on that below ...
First I want to say that the Eikon has solved my online security concerns. It's also easy to use, and easy to learn to use, too. I especially appreciate the very secure "Password Bank" in which you can review all of your passwords. Navigation through the software is transparent and simple. But first you have to take a little time and learn how it works.
I rushed into using the Eikon, and tried to do too many new things at the same time. First, I bought a new computer. Then, I installed the Eikon. Finally, I changed passwords on my most sensitive sites.
Of course, my secure sites didn't recognize my new computer, and with me immediately changing passwords, some balked. I worked it all out.
All an Eikon user needs to do is practice a bit on some unimportant sites requiring logins, and soon you'll be cruising.
The "swipe your finger" function is soooooo reliable - no tricks need to be learned, and it's more difficult to miss a swipe than to get it right. My wife, however, hates all electronic things new to her, and having her enter her prints was like asking her to pet a scorpion. She's fine with it now, though, and actually, "swiping" is as complex as brushing the tip of your nose with a fingertip.
I recommend the Eikon!
