"Get your hands off me. I have been stolen," the laptop, a portable computer, shouted. That is a new solution to laptop computer theft; a program that lets owners give their property a voice when it has been taken.
The program allows users to display alerts on the missing computer’s screen and even to set a spoken message. Tracking software for stolen laptops has been on the market for some time, but this is thought to be the first that allows owners to give the thief a piece of their mind.
Owners must report their laptop missing by visiting a website, which sends a message to the laptop: a red and yellow "lost or stolen" sign appears on its screen when it is started. Under the latest version of the software, users can also send a spoken message.
The message can be set to reappear every 30 seconds, no matter how many times the thief closes it. " One customer sent a message saying, ’ You are being tracked. I am right at your door’," said Carrie Hafeman, chief executive of the company which produces the program, Retriever.
In the latest version, people can add a spoken message. For example, the laptop’s speaker will say, "Help, this laptop is reported lost or stolen. If you are not my owner, report me now.
The Retriever software package, which costs $29. 95 but has a free trial period, has the functions of many security software programs. Owners can remotely switch to an alternative password prompt if they fear that the thief has also got hold of the access details.
If a thief accesses the Internet with the stolen laptop, Retriever will collect information on the Internet service provider in use, so that the police can be alerted to its location.
Thousands of laptops are stolen every year from homes and offices, and with the use of laptops increasing, the number of stolen laptops while their owners are out and about has been rising sharply.
Other security software allows users to erase data remotely or lock down the computer.
Different from other security software, Retriever can________.
选项
A、record the stealing process
B、help recognize the lost laptop
C、lock down the computer remotely
D、send a spoken message
答案
D
解析
通读第二段可知,该程序允许用户在丢失的电脑屏幕上显示警报,甚至可以设置语音信息;用于被偷的笔记本电脑的追踪软件已经上市一段时间了,但这被认为是第一款允许物主向窃贼表达想法的软件。由此可推知,Retriever这款软件与其他安全软件的不同之处在于它能发送语音信息。故选D。
