PC user control Software

[Guest]

I want software to enable me to control the time each of my children spend
on the computer. I have tried Parental Control at www.salfeld.com . My
computer conflicts with this software so I'm looking for another software
product to do exactly the same thing. Any recommendations? Commercial
solutions?

Have you tried troubleshooting that?

At the command prompt;

net user Nicky
-timesM,0530-2100;T,0530-2100;W,0530-2100;Th,0530-2100;F,0530-2359;Sa,0530-2359;Su,0530-2100

Should be one long line, not cut up like it is here.

Edit Nicky to your kids login and edit the times it kicks them off every evening.
IIRC there's options to give them warnings at 15 or 10 minute intervals before it
kicks 'em off but don't recall the switches at the moment.

If ya like, run it in a batch file.

No. I am not experienced at PC troubleshooting. I welcome any
troubleshooting steps you recommend. If you would please give me
step-by-step directions, as I'm not an expert like you people on this group.
For the reason of your expertise I have come to this group.

I'd appreciate your help. I want to keep the software if possible. Any
suggestions?

Hank

If you can install MSN messenger, feel free to add me to your contacts.
I will e-mail you my contact identification. We can go from there.
