    to my fellow truckers, need to know if this has happemed to anyone before.
    about a week ago i descovered on my apple laptop someone with remote access, ie: another desktop on my apple, i then saw meny files on this desktop and when i looked at thoes files they were qualcomm info from my truck and other trucks like truck movements and locations or just about everything that we as drivers send and recive on our qualcomm, i then brought the laptop to a apple store as this was way beyond my tech ability, the apple employee then locked the offending remote desktop so it could not be accessed therefore locking the files so they could not be removed, i then found that my droid and gps were also compermised and i took the data cards out cause they were being remotly accessed also, when i informed my company they dident belive me and i called local police and state police and fbi and homland security, and still no one will even look at the files witch is as i said the movements of my truck places and address of loads i was picking up, im stunned no one in law enforcment will even bother to look. need someone to listen, and see what the heck these files are, all my email accouts were stolen and have had no access to them, the email i used for this site i just made last night, if someone has seen somthing like this befor or can help, please contact me.... thanks guys

    okay, first of all -how do you normally connect to the internet? Open wifi or a cellular connection of some sort? Also please tell me the type of qualcomm device that is in your truck, i.e. MCP200 or MCP150 and does this device have wifi capabilities?

    You say you had qualcomm files on your apple, in what format were these files? Text, pdf? Did you have any kind of app on your Droid that could have been used as a tracking program? An app like "Google latitude" would be similar to what you have described.

    Also, how could your GPS be compromised? I don't understand this.
