So long story short. Random guy came to house giving free quotes for window n roofing. My dad ask for business card. Guy said he was running short on them n didnt give my dad one. Said he can come back tmrw since he was working on another house tmrw. My dad tells him he b at work tmrw. Guy didnt even give a company name. FML. Now I have to b home all day this week just in case. In the meantime does anyone no how to Turn Laptop in Streaming Security Cam?

He is probably harmless but yeah I did this on a ghetto old laptop. I had an external webcam for it yes it's that old lol and I downloaded this software for free forgot the name it's been a long time. It records and puts on a loop and you can set how many days it can override it.

Google would tell you more. I personally use a hard wired security camera around my property.

Best security system is a big dog or a 9mm

Thanks, I actually installed AtHome app on my phone n laptop n ipad. So I can stream from my ipad n laptop to my phone, n thers motion activation that automatically records n notifies me of movement. That n I also just bought some magnet door alarms, so if doors r open an alarm goes off. N I plan to visit my local police department tmrw n notify them of this so hopefully they can send a police car driving by my house every once in a while.

I really don't think dogs are the greatest security deterrent as hardened criminals can poison dogs in backyards pretty easily. I have heard of people releasing other aggressive dogs that can occupy dogs while houses are robbed also.

Dogs r kind of hit or miss, at a car lot once they just shot the poor dogs then stole a couple wheels and stereos, I also heard of a business in India where they let Cobras lose every night
