I'm searching for a software which locks out computer on a time basis, meaning, I'd like to lock out my computer for some time schedules like for example - 5 AM to 5 PM. In that time, no one is able to use the computer, and I know, there are many password protected softwares like that but I want one, that even I can't unlock if I want to, during that time. Hence, no password protection, just simple time lock.

Something along these lines is what I'm thinking you are looking for:

However, the whole 'can't unlock if I want to during that time' can simply be achieved perhaps by forgetting your password. Or perhaps just not using it during that time period. Otherwise, I'm not so sure a piece of software like that exists that has such a specific feature.

And whoever answered your Yahoo question went way off course...lol

heh.. you checked the yahoo answer? ;) Well.. yea.. I was using Aquarius only.. but its time lock mode is a bit weird.. it doesn't do anything except "saying.. Computer lock is enabled" or something like that.. This feature I only saw..in its non password mode...

Vista Parental Controls does the same without external software.
