Virus free shareware Full description: AbsoluteProtect lets you monitor location of your desktop or laptop by yourself so you can be sure that your privacy is protected.

When AbsoluteProtect is installed, it waits until the computer is connected to Internet (www, news, Email) and then makes HTTP connection to Absolute Protect web site, which establishes location of the computer.
Monitoring reports are available online.
This report informs you where the computer was located and when it was turned on, so you can detect any unauthorized use of computers. It also eliminates internal theft of computers within a company. Also it contains volume serial number and all available information about last known internet connection. You also specify how often these connections are made (recommended daily).
This process does not interfere with any PC work and can't be detected by the user or by current anti virus products. Continuous development ensures that the product remains resistant to any anti virus program.
You can access your online reports from any computer or that reports can be emailed to you. This report contains IP address of your computer, which lets you establish the location of lost desktop or laptop.
To obtain more information on how to establish the location of computer, see section below HOW TO LOCATE THE COMPUTER.

Besides that, AbsoluteProtect calls your phone number with 2 days interval - so you can detect location from where call was made. To make sure that the call is made by AbsoluteProtect you will hear ticking sounds (like someone repeatedly pressing number 8 on phone in pulse dial mode). If phone number is unlisted, private or you are unable to detect phone number - call police and they will be happy to assist you in detecting that number.
