Hi, not sure if this is the right group to ask this, if not perhaps
someone can point me in the right direction.
I have seen available USB "dongles" that plug into a laptop's USB port
that can be used as a security measure, i.e. the dongle is required to log
on to the machine, if the laptop is stolen and the thief tries to use it,
he can't if the dongle isn't in place.
Does anyone know anything about how these work..? Are they reliable..?
Being the worrying type I am concerned that if I used one of these the
control software might malfunction and stop *me* getting into the
machine..!
Any thoughts/advice appreciated.
