It's getting annoying as i can't use it to log into windows live messenger.
How can i fix this problem?
Thanks,

I don't have any experience with a fingerprint sensor (although I have one; I never use it), so...
But, in WLM did you first set everything up so it can log you in properly? That means did you checked the box "Log me in automatically" in WLM? This so it remembers your password.
As for as I know, such a finger print sensor is just used to log you in into your OS and then, if the sensor software allows it, do some automated tasks.
But those tasks are just that, simple tasks. It can't control every aspect of every software. You could tell it to start up some program, but that is it. If you want that program (WLM) to do anything more, you would need to set up that program itself so it does what you want. Aka check "Log me in automatically".
But, again, I have no experience with such finger print software, but this seems logic to me.
