<he he> I used to participate big time in www.distributed.net . To
participate you load a small program that uses your computers spare
cycles to work on shared computing problems like SETI at home does. As
each work unit is completed they get reported and your ID gets credited.
Over the years they have had several stolen computers retrieved by
watching where these work units were reported from, tracking back to the
ISP and then the connection. The joke was that the program was much like
"Lojak for your computer." Unfortunately they never had a client for
OS/400 or i5/OS though you could run the AIX binary in PASE.

Time to buy one of those Lojack devices that they put in cars to track
stolen vehicles.
Do they make a commercial version so that businesses can track their own
equipment and not have to call the police to find out where it is?
