A friend of mine shared to me about this freeware software that will track a stolen computer with geographic and pics? of a person using it anywhere, anytime. I just wonder is there anyone here knows or uses this? bec it might be useful especially for netbooks owners, which I heard reports of missing or stolen items..

As long as the PC has GPS and is turned on, I don't see why it wouldn't work and work well.

Update with a friend who uses this software, Indeed its effective and proven 100% here in cebu. His (registered)laptop was stolen at home and after a day a message from prey project emailed w/ a several pics and map of the guy who got his belongings. an entrapmnt were made w/ the local authorities the stolen goods were back. Hallelujah! I`m registering my laptops also.
P.s. the guy daw involved in selling hot items is an IT supervsor of certain company in ayala.what a waste, dili pagyud makontinto sa sweldo!
