And it crashes IE constantly and is very hard to uninstall. "The applications listed on SpeedApps page are rip-offs (at least most of them are if not all). Quite disappointing to see this post from you Ryan." I tried one of the apps and it did nothing. I unchecked the speedapps install box but it force installed the toolbar anyway. Piece of garbage.

I came across the program, thought it was useful, and decided to write about it. I'll be the first to admit that I don't check every single application to see if it was ripped off in some form or another. I've seen some of the other applications on the SpeedApps site featured on other reputable sites, so I guess we're not the only ones falling for it.

That program was originally developed for a product called the "Wireless PC Lock". It had a USB key and a wireless keyfob that locked the computer whenever the keyfob moved more than x feet from the USB key. You can even see in the screenshot the KeyFob ID in the window.
