The Wireless PC Lock from Sitecom is a
USB device that looks just like a Pen Drive, it plugs into a USB port
and with a small software program on the supplied CD your PC is then
safe from prying eyes.
The other part is a circular 2.5cm disc
with a clock battery inside this attaches to a keyring and whenever you
move more than two metres from your PC the screen blanks. Come back
within the two metre range and your screen displays whatever was there
before at whatever point you were working.
At the end of the short installation
you are asked to enter a password and should the unit be unavailable
you can enter the password to allow you to continue working. The
unavailable can be either the battery powered circular disc that fits
on the keyring or the USB plug (pen drive) should somebody remove it
from the USB port.
The package contains a small manual
(four sides in English) that takes you through installation but once
the CD is installed and you start setup.exe everything is displayed
clearly on the screen. The packaging also contains a USB extension lead
should you only have rear USB ports so the USB plug (pen drive) can be
connected to a rear port without causing problems.
It works on Windows 98SE or later and while the PC will discover the USB device you do need to run the setup.exe on the provided CD and follow the prompts to activate it.
There are four modes to use the
Wireless PC Lock in, these are set or changed from an icon in the
Windows tray somewhere near the clock in the right corner of your PCs
display. Normal Mode that I have already described. Lock Down Mode
where the screen displays the blank Sitecom screen this can be set from
the tray icon or by turning the wireless transmitter off. Fast Locking
activated by double clicking the icon in the taskbar. Finally Password
Locking that only allows the PC to be unlocked by entering the Password.
A password can be up to 64 alpha
numeric -case insensitive- characters, do not forget it. While this is
not rocket science it will stop the casual peeper and during my testing
period the PC behaved exactly as I expected, and as stated. If you work
in a small office environment with several PCs this could have its
uses and it is simple to use. Maybe you have your own office that you
need on occasions to leave unattended, again this would fit the bill.
Two things to remember do not leave
your keyring by the PC and do not forget your password. Sitecom
