Worried that you can’t walk away from your notebook computer without someone tampering or perhaps even trying to take it?  Well here’s a couple of programs that might help.

LAlarm is a simple program that triggers a high-pitched alarm if someone touches your computer and the siren can’t be turned off withouth logging into the computer which would draw plenty of attention.

Mac users could try iAlertU which is just like a car alarm…for your computer so if anyone touches the keyboard or trackpad, closes the lid or moves the computer an alarm will sound.

Of course the best protection for your notebook computer is to never leave it unattended.
