I like it. Of course, you could implement this feature now on your own. From: Andrew S. Baker [mailto:asbz...@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, December 20, 2011 3:36 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Interesting Windows 8 logon feature
After you've traced the correct password, the cursor should move in a random path for 5 seconds, and you should have to follow it before completely logging on. :) ASB http://XeeMe.com/AndrewBaker Harnessing the Advantages of Technology for the SMB market...
