Is there a way so that i would be able to stop internet usage on my computer for a set period of time(between lets say 11-5 i would want all internet shut off)? The parental controls on vista are not enough to prevent my kids from meddling around. I'm not very good with computers.
No offense or anything but if your not good with computers and your kids are (and depending on their age) they'll probably find a way to get around it
See: google.com -- first result I got
The Computer Kid: How to Bypass Vista Parental Controls
All they need to do is a search and all the info on how to bypass it is at their fingertips
What I would recommend is what barman said in the first post. Get a router that has access lockout times, the only way they can mess with that is if they get the username/password to the router.
