Future Technology Devices International Ltd. (ftdi) is currently convincing people not to use their software for hardware produced by other companies in a rather aggressive way. As a result you may see the text NON GENUINE DEVICE FOUND! or part of it when connecting to our buttonbox from Windows 7 or later.
