I'm fairly sure NetNanny, along with word and image web filtering, can
do timed controls.

        I agree fullheartedly.  Unfortunately, there may be extenuating
circumstances, and too many times I have seen this.  There *are*
software packages out there that do this:  http://www.akrontech.com/
http://www.softpedia.com/public/cat/14/7/14-7-64.shtml  among others.  I
know that there is a token based system out there, having read about it
in CNet, but I can't find it.  That part, she's probably going to have
to put in the creative effort.

        It's an old technology called a PARENT using DISCIPLINE.  It is
a forgotten technology, but when used properly works great.  By the way
it can also be used on the TV and Video games.

                Well, if she got a server, set up terminal services, and
then gave them each their own unique logins, she could then set specific
login hours, and set it to forcibly disconnect them then their login
hours expire...    :-)

                        Odd question but I told a person I work with
that I'd ask. She has two kids who use the computer too much in her
opinion. She was wondering if there was a way to setup something similar
to a token system whereby she could grant the children time on the
computer based on the tokens they earned. I told her that anythng like
that would be too cost prohibitive but said that I would ask.
