restrict program running time

Hi,

 

Is there any way to specify that a particular app can't run for 2-3

hour during a day.

For instance: restrict Outlook between 11:00 am and 14:00pm.

(Windows 2003 terminal services)

 

Regards,

Run a scheduled task at 11:00 am that does two things:

- Rename outlook.exe to outlook.bad

- Use TaskKill to kill all Outlook tasks.

 

Brutal but effective.

Many Thanks! Good idea.

Having a lot of fun testing taskKill :-))).
