MICROSOFT'S DIGITAL FORENSICS software has been spotted on a file-sharing site, available for all to download.
Computer Online Forensic Evidence Extractor (COFEE) is a forensics tool that fits on a USB drive for the police to use in PC forensics.
The software is free to police forces around the world and helps access details about crimes such as identity theft, online fraud, child pornography and illegal filesharing before criminals can wipe the information.
It's reportedly illegal for unauthorised people to download and use the software.
According to the Vole it takes the average bobbie "with even minimal computer experience" less than ten minutes to master the program.
