<p class=MsoNormal>Hi everyone,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>We have a paraplegic staff member who has to have someone
type his password for him to logon. I am looking for some way that he can log on
to his computer without assistance. Once he’s logged on, he uses a
straw to type in an onscreen keyboard—but, at this time, the straw
doesn’t work UNTIL he’s logged on. The program that works with the
straw is called WiViK 3.2. We have been testing the onscreen keyboard that
comes with Vista/XP and—when used at the logon screen—it seems
buggy. For one thing, I can’t make it come up automatically; another
problem is that the keyboard keeps freezing up. I have e-mailed the vendor of
WiViK, but have not heard back from them yet.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I once saw a vicinity name tag [RFID] that logged the wearer
into a windows computer if the name tag was within 5 feet of the computer, and
logged the user out if they were outside that range.<span style='color:#1F497D'>
</span>This seems like a better solution to me than the buggy onscreen
keyboard. However, I can’t seem to find anyone who makes this product.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>We are going to have a student starting in the fall who also
has mobility challenges; we would like to have some solution before he begins school.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Biometric logons are not a possibility.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Has anyone run into this problem before and how did you
solve it?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Thank you for any assistance,<o:p></o:p></p>
