Or perhaps a ditgital retinal EyeScan
via your web cam. Web cams would have to be sold as part of computer hardware AND have an eye piece fitted to them for retinal scanning. Would also have to work with any web cam. No passwords compromised this way. Software developed to do this is already out there. No web sites needed, software would ID users directly with records kept on servers matching user to thier retinal scan. How to impliment this I'll leave up to those who persue it.

However on the flip side companies who persue this type of authentification will charge outragously for the service.
