Funniest story I have read in a while

This is funny on several levels, Why he missed it and that he logged in remotely everyday and caught the thief.

"After his computer was stolen, Jose Caceres used a remote access program to log on every day and watch it being used. The laptop was stolen on Sept. 4, when he left it on top of his car while carrying other things into his home. "It was kind of frustrating because he was mostly using it to watch porn," Caceres said. "I couldn't get any information about him." Last week the thief messed up and registered on a web site with his name and address. Jose alerted the police, who arrested a suspect a few hours later. The moral of the story: never go to a porn site where you have to register."

That is awesome! Maybe I should install something like that on my PC just in case it is ever stolen. ;-)

I saw that on yahoo yesterday. Wonder what the software was. Can you imagine the frustration of just watching. Another story with a savy college prep said she had the notebook's webcam take a picture of the perk while he was using it, which the police were able to match in their database.

People will never learn, geeks rule!
