VUWER 1.2.6

VUWER 1.2.6 is such an effective tool that is designed to remotely track your MacBook or MacBook Pro (or any other Apple computer) in the event that it is lost or stolen.

VUWER is not foolproof, but it is reasonably secure, easy to implement, and costs nothing but a little time and effort to set up.

Major Features:

1. VUWER is free of charge, open source, and relies on standard OS X commands and readily available freeware applications for installation and operation.  Also, since VUWER is written in Applescript, it is relatively easy to modify or enhance in any way you choose.
2. You are in complete control of where the captured data from your stolen laptop is sent and how it is accessed; data can be transmitted either by email or by secure file copy to another computer account.
3. You can remotely capture screenshots, iSight images, and IP addresses from your laptop, and separately choose their respective repetition intervals.
4. No third-party intermediary is required to track your laptop.  VUWER eliminates any possibility of an unscrupulous person at a theft-recovery company snooping on you.

Enhancements:

• Used Snow Leopard’s Applescript Editor to compile VUWER applications and eliminate potential runtime errors in some OS 10.6 installations.
• Fixed bug that could result in VUWER installation path being parsed incorrectly.

Requirements:

• VUWER should work on any Mac running Snow Leopard (OS 10.6.x) or Leopard (OS 10.5.x). 
• VUWER may also work on Tiger (OS 10.4.x), but it has not been tested. 
• VUWER will not function with OS X 10.3.x or earlier.
