Your software would also be pretty cool so that i could actively track my car when the PC is on but if the PC gets turned off or the car is being towed then the standalone version would still be active (but not as user friendly).

Oh, I understand what you are saying. Yes this would definitely be the best alternative for keeping your car safe. Spec-pc is this the type of thing you were referring to?

I'll be going live again in 5 minutes. If someone would be so kind and check to see if the online/offline status is jumping back and forth like it was yesterday that would be much appreciated.

Looks fine to me

**xBrady** · 05-20-2005, 05:20 PM

Thanks for checking that for me.
