[TriLUG] stollen computer

[Barry Evans]

Certainly hacking your *own* computer can't be a crime so definitely 
unleash anything you can to get useful information.  I don't believe you 
ever said if it was a linux or pc box.  I'd look for documents in the hopes 
he wrote a paper for work or school that might allow you to find 
him.  Email, webbrowser caches should be pulled down & combed for clues. 
Remember windoze programs like BackOriffice that go so far as capturing 
keystroke and even audiostreams if a mic is present...
