I would go to the website and download the cab directly, so as not to transfer a virus if you have one to your computer, and see what happens.
It runs in the background and I haven't noticed any lag with it running.

Thanks for this, it is cool

But it still makes me wonder why it is free?

yes, it's still beta. the phone locator didn't work for me, but the siren most definitely did.
i have another cab called smartphonelocator that will find it for me.
I haven't tried the nuke function yet, wanna be the guinea pig???

I normally use Sprite Terminator for it. The location worked, I also tried lock and that worked, tried wipe just before I flashed a new ROM and it worked. Wiped out even the files on the SD card. (I did put in another card with a few useless files.) The only difference is this one you go on the internet and with ST you can just send your phone a txt. (Do that BEFORE you call the phone company to report it lost) But I like the backup feature. Even though it is a little useless to me. If it backed up my SD card it would be great.

Is it also possible that he dialeda 10-digit number with a Canadian area code?

I called some company in Toronto a few months back with similar results.
