Anti theft alarm program

 Hi guys,
I have been reading about a software called Tomato which uses the sensor of the HD drive to make an alarm when the computer is moving (you can use in f.e. in libraries) I downloaded and executed it, but it doesn't work
I am running a T400 with Windows Vista bussiness 32 bits.
any hint?
T400 (2767-AK3)

How about this one that works with the Active Protection feature?

  • Guidance to develop 2-way GSM (Mobile application) for car anti-theft Secur

    I am software Developer (Java / J2EE). I am new to J2ME. I want to develop a car security system using 2-way GSM (mobile communication).
    My Project Working / Requirement :
    The alarm is applied with a mobile telephone SIM card (excluded), allowing the alarm to make and receive telephone calls whenever car is tempered with. This also allows you to track the location of the car via the telephone signal. Any SIM Card can be used. To use the system, just call the telephone number of the alarm, enter your pin number and a voice menu will guide you through the options. The pin-number system prevents unauthorized access to the alarm features. The manufacturing PIN number is pre-set and can be re-set by the owner. Calls can be made to the alarm by any telephone. Two alarming telephone numbers can be registered on the alarm. If the alarm is triggered, the alarm will automatically call the first telephone number within 13 seconds. This is in addition to the regular alarm (flashing lights, siren). If there is no reply, it will call the second number. The user can then reset the alarm, monitor the car, send a verbal warning to the burglars or stop the car by the telephone.
    Queries :
    1. I need suggestion on how do I go about it? 2 ways I can think of�..
    a) Car anti-theft Device (an electronic device) which triggers the alarm whenever car is tempered with, will be readily available in market. Now I have to implement 2-way GSM alarming. So how do I integrate or implement above explained working in that electronic device so as to send / receive calls through alarm.
    b) Is there any way, where directly from scratch I develop alarming system using just mobile phones, where it will be programmed to work as explained above.
    2. I want to know is there any open source codes available which is similar to
    this type of application. From which site I will get it?
    3. I am studying tutorial of J2ME and have started developing midlets (studying CLDC/MIDP). But I want to know what exactly I need to learn in J2ME? Which APIs I need to study to implement above project?
    4. Anybody has done any similar type of project? Please give me some idea.
    Thanks in advance,
    Dhara

    Please explore some more, I dont get what u mean by alarm, alarm features, alarm to make and receive telephone calls, alarm is applied with a mobile telephone

  • How to uninstall McAfee Anti-theft?

    I have recently bought my notebook and would like to competely uninstall McAfee Anti-Theft before even registering this programme. I don't have sensitive data on my notebook and don't need this software.
    I have read that it is difficult to completely uninstall this programme.
    Is this true or can I just choose the uninstall procedure in the system settings tab?

    Ive tested it for you.
    Uninstall McAfee Internet security at first and then after notebook restart uninstall McAfee Anti-Theft.
    Do it using uninstall option in Control Panel > Programs and Features.
    I dont see any problem with removing it.
    At the end go to McAffe Security Advisor symbol at the desktop, click with right mouse button on it and choose option uninstall.
    Thats it.

  • Intel AMT & Anti Theft

    Hi All,
    Anyone using Intel AMT or Anti-Theft? Are they of much use...? 
    Am I missing much by not using them? Been doing some googling but can't quite find what I need. They seem more aimed at corporate users rather than retail consumers.
    Information appreciated.

    It's easy to remove the software, and easy to disable both of these the functions in the BIOS.
    Your computer came with a document entitled "User Guide" pre-installed on it.  To access the User Guide, press the start button, select 'Help and Support', then select the link entitled "User Guide" that will appear in the upper left corner of the window.  There you will find instructions explaining how to disable the feature.  Likewise for the Anti-Theft. There's also about 200 more pages of information explaining how your computer works, what you can do with it, etc.  It makes for fascinating reading.  The document is a PDF, you can save it to your desktop if you wish so that it is available whenever you want it.  You can even use the 'search' feature of Adobe Reader to instantly find topics, such as 'AMT' or 'Anti-Theft'.  This actually enables you to find information on your own in less time than it takes to make a post here in the forum asking others to find the information for you.
    The anti-theft does not require or have any software  unless you have taken deliberate action to purchase and download an anti-theft service.  To remove the AMT software (if installed), press the start button, select 'Control Panel', then select 'Programs and Features', find the AMT software entry, select it, right click, and choose 'uninstall'.

  • Security, anti-theft

    Hi,
    Last week I bought a cellphone and it was lifted out of my car in less than 12 hours. I now have a brand new Bold. I hesitated in buying it since it is a valuable commodity, but I was told that the anti-theft features were quite good. Apparently the phone can be tracked via GPS if you activate it immediately. I have also heard about monitoring software that works in the background and can send out security details if the SIM card is ever changed.
    I learned of PhoneBAK BB, which is an application available at Download.com and which has a high rating according to the site managers.
    Has anyone heard of this? Are there other security options available that anyone has had any experience with?
    Does anyone know of a website that explains how to secure a cellphone against theft?
    I would be quite interested in hearing about it.
    Cheers,
    Mikey53

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    While there is no way to really secure a device "against theft", there are measures you can take to do the things you discuss -- but IMHO the device itself is a commodity. The data contained on it, however, is potentially priceless. Hence, there are two things that BB's have that I consider invaluable:
    1) Backups -- the desktop software lets you backup all of your critical data. Further, if you are synchronizing with a desktop PIM, your data is already backed up there.
    KB12487 How to backup data on a BlackBerry smartphone
    KB17022 How to configure synchronization settings for BlackBerry Desktop Manager
    2) Device Password -- once activated, this will be required to unlock the device. After 10 sequential failed attempts, the device will wipe itself clean of all of your personal data.
    KB16307 Actions that the BlackBerry smartphone performs during a BlackBerry smartphone wipe processes
    With those two measures, I consider anything else to be somewhat useless...replacing the device is simple (yes, it could cost $$$, but it is easy)...replacing the data is really hard. And protecting that data from others is IMO essential.
    Hope that helps!

  • Intel Anti Theft not working properly

    I am having problems with Itel Anti Theft keep locking every 7 days as my lap top is not communicating with the Intel server. Intel will not help me with the problem, I can not get past the call center in India, they keep promising to call me back by a "senior techniian" but no call back.
    Help please.

    The Intel Anti-Theft technology isnt Toshiba feature
    This additional technology is provided by Intel and it looks like the issue is related to Intel server connection.
    By the way:
    I found nice instruction created by Toshiba - Intel Anti-Theft Service User Guide
    This manual explains how to take advantage of the built-in hardware features, software options, and service benefits of the Intel Anti-Theft Service

  • Free Anti-Virus/Spyware Program?

    Are there any good, free anti-virus/spyware programs out there to protect my Mac? Ones that remove Mac viruses/spyware as well as Windows ones too? I know there aren't nearly as many threats out there for a Mac compared to Windows, but they are still out there so I want to be safe and know my Mac is secure.
    I'm an ex-PC user of many years so I am used to having some comfort knowing I have protection...

    there are some trojans and I think keyloggers exist too but they can't be installed without your active participation. meaning you have to download it, install it and enter your admin password. These things are sometimes disguised. there were a few posts recently by people who got a trojan while visiting adult websites the trojan was disguised as a codec that they were prompted to install to view certain content. However, currently that's pretty much the only way something like this can get into your Mac. If you use a standard account for normal computer operation and take minimal reasonable precautions about what you install on your system there is no need for extra protection.

  • How and where to hide anti theft soft in order not...

    In my n95,i have bought kaspersky antivirus which have anti theft function also.But installing soft in phone memory or memory card can be removed by thieves by hard reset or formatting before sim change if thieves are clever enough.Even folder lock or ADV also fails if hard reset is done.Isn't there any solution to hide this software or such setting that it cannot be removed by hard reset?

    actually theres no need to get that far. I installed Kaspersky Mob security on both my E71 and N8 and i can easily uninstall them by the app manager!!!! No need for factory restart or firmware reinstallation. A novice can get rid of this "protection" software by just one click

  • Intel Anti Theft Service with my new T520

    Folks,
    I  when I went to the Intel site to sign up for the AT service it said I should have got a yellow card
    in the box with the laptop with the activation code.
     I checked, I did not get that card, does anyone know how to get the code ?
    Thanks
    -Fred
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The post above by JDay is no longer true. Intel has been distributing activation codes to some of their reseller partners. See my post below on how to acquire the activation codes.

  • Intel Anti-Theft Technology: Low cost enterprise options

    Working in education, I'm looking for a low cost option for implementing anti-theft tech. All we need is a way to disable stolen computers, in order to deter thieves in the future. We don't expect to recover stolen equipment, so tracking is not needed. Computrace is too expensive. SecureDisable seems like a good option without unnecessary features, but still seems like a lot for a simple service.
    Anybody have any experience in this area?
    Are pay services absolutely required for this tech? What about writing a custom management plug-in?

    Hello,
    Two thoughts:
    Check with your existing vendor(s) of security software to see if they offer an anti-theft module or product as an add-on to your existing license.
    The open source Prey Project is another solution to investigate.

  • Anti-theft Apps

    Hi there. I would like to know if there is any app out there on the appstore that takes pictures anonymously in case someone types a wrong password, and sends it to my email address with GPS positioning (anti-theft app). I found one a few weeks ago called "Dot Lock Secure", which promised 10 different password systems to use (amont them the famous dot lock used by android phones), and secret photo taking in case of an attemp to "break in". This was a godsend, specially considering that there is an app for that for Cydia users, called IGotYa, wich has already proven effective in case of stolen phones. I recently had my iphone stolen,  and it sucked, specially considering how ineffective Find my iPhone is on these situations, it is a simple matter of turning off the phone to avoid location, and formating it as soon as one reaches a computer.
    Is there any good anti-theft app out there?
    Also, where can I post suggestions to apple? Find my iPhone should be used not only for remote locking, wiping and messages, but also to prevent turning off the phone and secret photo taking. Apple has the tech, it makes no sense not to use it...Also, since every phone is has a single serial code, it should be possible to track it even after it has been formated...
    Well, hope someone can help.
    Thanks

    You can leave feedback for Apple here: http://www.apple.com/support/feedback/
    Also, I haven't heard of an app that you're describing.  I think they should have an option to set a code in order to turn the phone off as well as unlocking it.

  • Accidentally deleted my BBID associated with Anti-theft protection that was still on.

    On July 15 I bought $600 BB Passport from a vendor at a popular IT market in Bangkok, Thailand. Currently, Blackberry is completely gone from Thailand, no service provider nor authorized dealer for BB Passport. I accidentally deleted BBID used with Anti-theft protection feature and it was on when this happened. I can't remember exactly how that happened and why it was so easy to delete the BBID without knowing I actually did. I recreated new BBID by using the same email and question for recovery but it did not work as my device won't accept it and kept saying the Anti-theft protection is on. Unfortunately I have tried so many times to put the password associated with the accidentally deleted BBID but it still did not work. Now the BB passport is like an expensive brick to me. I have taken the photo of my old BBID that was deleted. I have my BBM Pin that was set up by using this old BBID. I know the screen name of it, except one thing the password that no matter how I tried it was not accepted to my device. Things got worst when the vendor I bought the device from reformatted my device and i still CANNOT use my new BBID to set up the device. I have no carrier as BB passport is not official to Thailand. Please help i am so desperate. I have been waiting for so long to have this device. I took the risk of knowing that no provider in Thailand. Thank you so much

    I might be able to help you some more. If your able to log onto protect.blackberry.comAnd you can see your deviceGo to manage devicesNear the bottom select removeThen log out of Protect web page. Then go back to the device,Enter the password to many times until it wipes clean.If it didn't power off and back on during the wipe then do that first. Now you should be able to log onto the device using your protect.blackberry.com ID and password You should be all set than Unfortunately I don't have an support email for them

  • What is the best anti-theft software for a laptop?

    Hi-
    My daughter is off to college tomorrow and I thought it would be a good idea to install some anti-theft/retrival software on her brand new 2.4 Ghz Mac Book.
    I thought I would wait until she's there so it has the college server/IP address.
    Any recommendations?
