I was wondering if I can lock out a profile on my dell 8400. I have xp home editon w/SP@ installed. Can I lock out the third profile at midnight and enable it in the morning?? Is there a web site that can explain more ??? Thanks

Hmmmmmmmm........

hardware profile? Or a user account? If the latter, you can do it (http://www.mvps.org/marksxp/WindowsXP/userhours.php). (It says win xp pro only, but i believe win xp home can do it too). If the user is already logged in though, it won't force them to log out. You might be able to set a Task Scheduler event to run the "shutdown" command with the "-" option to log off from that account...
