I agree, been using this for a while. Works pretty well.

Subject: Re: Tracking stolen laptop via IP address (internet)

 

One word...... Computrace. If you only have a couple of devices you want
to track, then go with their LoJack product. If you need to protect many
devices, then go with Computrace Complete, as it gives you a single
point of administration.

Yes, what you ask is possible, IF you can get cooperation from the ISP
and governmental authorities who have jurisdiction, and IF you can
obtain the IP address of the device.

My question is, how on earth would you get the IP without a product such
as. Computrace (which permanently hooks into the BIOS), especially if
the hard drive is obliterated?

Thumb-typed from my HTC Droid Incredible (and yes, it really is) on the
Verizon network. Please excuse brevity and any misspellings.
