At my work, we sell and extended warranty for notebooks which comes with product calls Guardian Anti-Theft.

What is does is that it creates small partition on your hard drive with Miltary Grade Incription on your notebook and your policy ID number.
Every time you access the internet, it sends a single of to the Guardian Anti-Theft Server noting down the IP Address which this notebook has accessed from.
If this notebook turns out to be reported stolen, your policy ID and the IP Address get highlighted in the data base. And with this information, you can report it to the police. Track the IP Address down to the ISP, and from the ISP, the owner of the account.

The only way to remove Guardain Anti Theft is to replace the hard drive.
