I'll be getting an iBook soon and security is a little issue for me since it is afterall, a laptop. One concern i have is theft. I'm not going to be careless or anything but things do happen. So i was wondering if there was a way to make an applescript that would work in the following manner if given the right situation:
Suppose a person steals your laptop. It's on and it's asleep. Theres a folder on the desktop labeled "Credit Cards" or something enticing that a thief would love to look at. Besides, it's his laptop now. So he clicks open the folder and thats where the applescript comes into play! The applescript (this is where i don't know how to explain) makes the thief log in. Now, i don't know if its possible to "log out" if you don't have mulitple users on your laptop. So what happens could be left in the air... a screen saver with a password? Something with a password that wouldnt have a "cancel" option. So while the thief has your laptop... atleast you know he's pissed off because they trouble he has to go through now to unlock it is greater.
Can anyone tell me if thats possible??
