Hello all,

I am making a tabcontrol web browser. I would like to add some settings to the browser which would allow my daughter to only be on it for a certain time limit. Example:

Have a section where I could select a time limit -
checkbox = 10 mins
checkbox = 30 mins
checkbox = 1 hour
checkbox = unlimited

which ever check box I select would be saved in my.settings so when it opens she could only be on it for a certain time before a message box appears saying "your time limit has expired"

I know how to use my.settings but I am unsure how to do a process like this.

I am sure I would have to use a timer control but don't know how to program it.

Anyone know????
or helpppppp

Thanks in advanced

I recommend you dont uninstall IE. thats not smart, and i suppose you could hide it... i know you can make folders "invisible" just move the IE.exe somewhere in system32 or something. Do you want the drop down to be functional? or just what it would look like?
 
Mmmm. alright. working on it right now. i made it go up to 12PM. give me bout 10 minutes and i should have some sort of thing working here :p
 
Okay, so heres a REALLY watered down version. it works, but im not sure how well. i tested it once and it worked. its sorta hard to test right away. if you dont look at this by 10 youre going to have to wait a interval of 15 minutes to try >.> so... hit f5 :p here it is... use the dropdown list to pick a time now...

i sorta went in depth and made it check for times; AM / PM. currently in the dropdown box theres only PM. you can obviously add more anytime. let me know what you think and what you want me to do/add.

OH im a retard, i forgot i included source, you can just change the time for a minute untill now.. -_- lol
