McAfee Releases Mobile Anti-Theft for BlackBerry v. 1.0 BETA

I was browsing www.getjar.com and I found yet another application that may help you recover your precious blackberry from McAfee. this program may come in handy in case you loose it or some one with sticky fingers gets  a hold of your BB.  We have mentioned a few of those berry locator programs before such as roblock. McAfee anti-theft is nothing revolutionary but it is a very handy and easy to use program.

Mcafee anti-theft has the ability to assign multiple SIM cards which is ideal for those that tend to use more than one service /line on their BB.

I was impressed that the application only takes 56k of memory for what it does. There are two main features used to inform you in case your blackberry gets lost or stolen by using email and/or SMS allowing you to assign more than one email and phone number to contact you. If some one inserts a SIM card on the phone other than what you have added then the program will send you  messages to the assigned email or phone number. The program has an option to set how many times you want it to contact you and what what time frame in between intervals. Unlike some of the other pay applications right now this beta is free for to try until the end of the year which wouldn’t be a bad idea to have this install just incase something happened.

With this program when you get notify you not only get notify that some one has your cell phone but it also includes the phone number to the unknown SIM card but also data that can be used at www.celltomap.com to find the location of the stolen phone.
