Hi,

I just found your email on a 1 year old thread at mailman.mit.edu.

I wanted to know whether you had figured out an XP/non domain solution.

So far the only way I found to get a "card insertion event" is to launch a 
timer: the point for me being to offer smart card PC protection for 
non-networked PCs.

Regards,

Philippe martin
