iHoundSoftware.com - Stop Thieves, Track Your iPod

So some miscreant jacked your iPod from your bag at Starbucks and now you’ve lost a lifetime of portable music. Besides crying for days and seeking comfort in your old pal Jack D., there’s nothing much you can do really, is there? Not much unless you lojacked your iPod with iHound. iHound is a new security app which will alert you whenever your USB device is connected to someone else’s computer (it takes down the IP address, computer name and ISP). With iHound’s Device Tracker you can track your device on a map in real time. You’ll also be able to print out a report with the location deets to give to the cops so they can recover your precious device. iHound works with most USB devices that connect to your computer to update, so iPods, flash cards, jump drives, phones, MP3 players, and digital cameras are trackable. Sign up for an account today and connect up to three devices for free, no credit card needed.

This is a great little app. How many of us misplaced or lost our digital devices, thinking that that was it, nothing more could be done? iHound brings us hope. Your stolen iPod can be tracked and traced with precision. The best part is, it’s free.

Does this really work? Is it easily defeated? Isn’t it rather problematic that iHound does not support Macs, but tracks iPods?
