Hello, TheGeek: While stealth software offers a recovery aspect, the best approach to laptop security is to first take all measures to PREVENT the theft in the first place. These include: --Permanent Property Identification with registry database. --Lock laptop in a safe place when not in use. --Don't leave it in your car--ever! Not even in the trunk. --Develop a strong and enforceable laptop security policy at your organization--with serious consequences for those who don't comply. --Treat your laptop as if it were your wallet or your purse. --Treat the data on your laptop as if it were currency -- because it is! Encrypt, and Back Up. Full disclosure: I am the director of customer relations at a laptop security firm that deters theft with a permanent identification system, patented stolen property tattoo beneath the marking plate, and web-based inventory management utility. Hope these are helpful tips. Best regards, Doug Belfiore
