Hello,
How do I schedule for my internet connection to be disabled say at 8am? I'm using Utorrent and do not want to have it running when my familly wakes up. Thank you

You can shut utorrent at 8AM. Open a command prompt, run tasklist and get the PID of utorrent for that session. Let's say the PID is 816.

Create a batch file and save it in the root directory of the C: drive. Name it anything you want. I'll call it kill.bat

C:\taskkill /pid 816

The add kill.bat to your scheduled tasks.
