This shows that the cops only care about their reputation, as opposed to actually helping people.

@Jon There’s a difference between “looking professional” and being downright creepy. I probably would be creeped out a tiny bit if you never looked away (not that I noticed when you did to begin with). It’d be kinda like sitting in a room with someone who’s ALWAYS staring at you. Even if he looks friendly, you still get the feeling that he’s thinking about taking you home and skinning you alive when he catches you not paying attention. Am I right?

There is a free program called Prey that does the same thing. I have that loaded on each of my computers. I am glad to see that this technology works!

@SCOTTW25 lol no need to have a tantrum, posting abusing posts on my channel wall etc. What are you 5 years old? I made a valid observation that you couldn’t hack. Don’t criticize if you cant handle some coming your way dude.

If you want to do this for windows, purchase a Remote Administration Tool. They are well known for hacking and malicious stuff – But if you only use it for your computer and toggle the registry settings so that it doesnt mess with your registry, then it’s safe to use. (Run it off a static ip – like no-ip or dyndns)

@CastlePokemetroid my firewall is fairly strict, it detected an attempted attack and gave me the IP address, used a website that tracks IP’s to a physical address, the rest was google maps… lol
