Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Though this program features several parental-control options for managing computer use, its numerous options may be overwhelming. Time Boss runs in stealth mode and uses a functional but crowded interface. With it, you can add and delete user accounts, define time limits and ranges, and add bonus time for any user's computer and Internet usage. You can restrict and allow folders, drives, programs, and Web sites, and set Time Boss to capture screenshots. An event log is kept to view the screenshots and statistics regarding time usage. The program is password-protected and can't be uninstalled or disabled via the Task Manager. It even blocks older, savvier kids from tampering with your machine's date and time. Its wealth of features may initially appear confusing, but once you get going you'll see that Time Boss is well worth a try.Publisher's description

Version: Time Boss 2.43
"It really is a great product!"
Pros: From starting the program, I created five profiles, adapted them to each user, and closed the program. In practice, the logs and screenshots tools are intuitive, making it convenient to review each user's events.
Cons: Does work with Windows 7?

Version: Time Boss 2.43
"Did not provide admin rights. Unable to uninstall."
Pros: No opportunity provided to assess it's effectiveness.
Cons: Installed trial version on son's PC. Upon install, it took over and provided only 45 minutes. Not clear what program was set to do. Admin rights were denied. No control given. Save a headache, try KidsWatch instead. It has tech phone support.
