Well the program runs on the computer and detects if the IP changed. If it did it will send an email. It will also send an email once per day.

As I know there are 3 methods how to detect location of laptop:

a) GPS
b) IP detected on server computer (from which we can obtain ISP and username or new user)
c) ISP and username of new user detected by monitoring agent on client computer and reported to server computer (IP detection not used)

Which methods this program is using?

The laptop is a LENOVO Think Pad and I even tried to get the company to see if they could track it and lock it and they said there was no way they could. What do I DO?

guess the tricks with webcams etc work only as long as it’s a novelty
booting with CD/DVD would stop it
solution would be intregration into the BIOS, but even that is not perfect (re-flashing/swap chip)
i keep pics of all my components so i have all serial/model # avail if needed

Hi Martin,

What you said above is right, only the dumb or the naive can ever think of such an idea. We can create as many bogus accounts like Admin of whatever as we like, but what’s the point in doing it. Maybe some years before, may be thieves could have thought about that, but in the present day, a thief who can stole the PC do very well know why and what for he is steeling the PC. So it does not matter how much we try to impersonate, the person who does it always find a way out….
