Prey Project
« on: 28 February 2012, 19:15 »
Has anyone used this?? Only found one user review on the net and quite a few articles relating to the guy who had his laptop stolen and managed to recover it using this open source software.

Plus this article from pcadvisor...

Not heard of it but do have something similar on my Mac it's built in to Mackeeper which does system scans, virus software and built in theft protection.

just been to the website and had a good old read of the FAQ's.

seems like a very nice bit of kit. may even go for the pay version at approx £35 for the year, its not a bad buy to know all your work is safe.
