Hi all,

Does anyone out there have a PC TSR that logs how long a PC is used for?

I can find ones that say when a PC is switched on, but not the length of
time that it was used for.

What I have in find, if I can ever figure out how to program TSRs, is a
utility that when run, writes a date/time stamp to a file, and every five
minutes thereafter, writes a second date/time stamp to the file.

Thus, when the PC is switched off, even though the TSR dies, the information
is still held. 

The next time the PXC is switched on, the TSR simply copies the old date
information to a different file, and starts again.

Is there anything even remotely like what I need out there?

Thanks,

|\/|
