thank you
It's a tracking device: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LoJack Though I doubt you'll find it in Germany, or any use for it.

I'd suggest getting a Key Lock Security Chain Cable, since your notebook should have a security slot for that. I tied my TFT monitor and notebook to the radiator with one. If they don't use brute force, risking to damage the device, then they'd need a bolt clipper or other equipment to remove it. It would at least buy you some time.
