How do I restrict a User's Logon hours?


You can only restrict when a user can log on to the system. On a stand alone

computer, there is no way,

currently, to force a user to log off when their hours expire.

1) Open Help and Support and type "logon hours" (without the quotes) in the
search box.

2) Go to Full text matches and click on "Net user". See the examples for setting a
user's logon hours.
Some examples would be:

net user johnsw /time:M-F,08:00-17:00
net user johnsw /time:M-F,8am-5pm
net user marysl /time:M,4am-5pm;T,1pm-3pm;W-F,8:00-17:00
net user johnsw /time:all (this one means this user can always log on)

3) Open a Command Prompt window.

4) Enter the appropriate "net user" command for the user(s) you wish to restrict
access for.

Disable Windows® Messenger in Windows® XP Pro


If you're running Pro, you can use GPEDIT.MSC to prevent Messenger from
loading. Otherwise, even disabling it

in startup won't cause it to "always" not run. Outlook, OE and some MS web pages
can still make it load.

1) Start, Run and ender GPEDIT.MSC

2) For "per machine" restriction, go to Computer Configuration, Administrative

Templates, Windows Components, Windows Messenger

For "per user" restriction, go to User Configuration, Administrative Templates,
Windows Components, Windows Messenger

3) You can now modify whether it starts initially and/or whether its to run at all.

Note: Outlook and Outlook Express will take longer to open, unless you turn off
Messenger Support.

In Outlook Express its in Tools, Options, General tab. In Outlook its in Tools,
Options, Other.

If you prefer to remove Windows Messenger manually, click Start, Run and enter
the following command:

RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%\inf\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove

Note: This will prevent a long delay when opening Outlook Express if you have
