Parental Control Quetion

[ilikegirls]

Hey guy,

I just have a quick question i hope! I used windows 7 build-in parental control to limit the times the kids can long on but its a 12 hour window. I want to make it so that within those 12 blocks, they can only log in for like 2 hours and after those are up even if its still within the time i allowed they will get kicked off.

Ideas?!

Thanks!

give them their own user name on the PC, install windows live family safety, and you can give then hour by hour permission, it shuts down at the appropriate times etc.

the only issue I had with it was that I ran it on a normal account, (not admin), and it made installing software tricky.

I think the issue is they want to set it up where there.is a 12 hour window the kid is allowed on, but they are only allowed to use the computer 2 hours total a day. So setting it up hour by hour wont work. I'd don't think there's away to do that... I'd just tell the kid 2 hours Max and then suspend him for a week if he goes over
