Hi all,
I’m interested in question now if your PC protected constantly from unapproved access?
I found one tool…. Alparysoft VideoLock for Webcam - image identification security system for home PC. Does anyone know if it’s really so cool?

I am not sure about yours but some webcam does have problems when the lights are out or there is alot of shadows. If you get it let us know your results.
How about one for fingerprints? I have it on my ipaq and it is great. I am seriously getting one for my laptop and desktop.

You can get a dongle based system where you have to physically connect a piece of hardware to the USB port before the machine will let you in, but the biometric measures such as fingerprints are the way to go probably.
The weak link in the scenario is that the fingerprint usually is there as an added convenience as an alternative to supplying a password, which is still available (in case the fingerprint reader fails) so if the password were compromised the account is open.
