Great to track length on time on Internet
tamara_mr24July 23, 2009
Pros
Tracks length of time on Internet Logs shows the date, time and length of connection
Cons
Some features limited
Summary
A small box shows up and I can position it at any screen corner. It displays information that I selected in the preferences. It also has a log to show each connection made, the date, time and duration. This log can be copied or exported. Very useful because I have a set amount of Internet access and I can check how much is left.
Totally worthless rubbish. DON'T use!

Pros
It's freeware! (But supplier should pay US for our troubles LOL.)
Cons
Wouldn't work in any way (as advertised) on my PC. Clumsy, unworkable interface. Attempted to remove it with Windows XP "Add or Remove Software" application. PC then totally locked up, requiring soft reboot. Finally removed it using CCleaner. Would stay well away from this product.
Summary
It is REALLY EFFECTIVE
