I need a program that prevents login between certain hours

[jaffa]

I share my computer that runs win xp home with some other persons. I don't want these people to be able to login between 8pm and 8am, but the system should allow me to login during these hours.

Do you know of any freeware (or maybe commercial program) available for download that meets these needs?

Hope that you have some suggestions for me...

Doesn't Windows let you assign that sort of stuff to the accounts in it's security policy?

hmmm, we use ScriptLogic here, which includes that ability, but you have to have a domain for it. I don't think they have any software for standalone workstations.

edit: a quick google found THIS. You might also check out the Microsoft Shared Computer Toolkit for Windows XP, which is free from Microsoft.

You can specify logon times when your conected to a domain, but for standalone I believe you have to use the Net user /Times: command.

For example Net User %Username% /Times:M-Su,8am-8pm

Its been a while since I used it on a standalone machine but I'm sure its something like that.
