| 702756 | 2008-09-07 05:03:00 | Here's a basic AutoHotkey (http://www.autohotkey.com/) script that would work but it could be improved on immensely, it doesn't lock the computer down but you need to answer correctly to remove the window. It runs in the background and asks a question every seven minutes. As you can see, Task Manager is forced to close if found open. To quit the app just go Ctrl+Shift+Esc and use "hello" for the password. Tweak and compile as you like, here's one I compiled earlier (pipi.co.nz). #NoTrayIcon #SingleInstance Force SetTimer, CloseTaskmgr, 100 SetTimer, AskQuestion, 420000 AskQuestion: Random, intOne, 3, 12 Random, intTwo, 3, 12 Answer := intOne * intTwo Gui +Owner +AlwaysOnTop -Caption Gui, Font, S30 CDefault, Verdana Gui, Color, FFFFCC Gui, Add, Text, x10 y20 w60 h50 Center, %intOne% Gui, Add, Text, x80 yp w30 hp Center, × Gui, Add, Text, x120 yp w60 hp Center, %intTwo% Gui, Add, Text, x190 yp w30 hp Center, = Gui, Add, Edit, x230 yp w120 hp Number Limit3 Center vGuess Gui, Add, Button, x360 yp w120 hp Default, OK Gui, Show, Equation, Time for some math Return GuiClose: ButtonOK: Gui, Submit, NoHide If Guess = %Answer% GoSub, CorrectAnswer Else ControlFocus, Edit1 ControlSetText, Edit1 Return Return Return CorrectAnswer: Gui, Destroy MsgBox, 64, Well done, Your answer was correct, 4 Return CloseTaskmgr: SetTimer, CloseTaskmgr, off Process, Wait, taskmgr.exe, 4 Process, Close, taskmgr.exe SetTimer, CloseTaskmgr, on Return ^+Esc:: InputBox, password,Password,,hide,200,100,,100 If password = hello ExitApp Return |

| 702757 | 2008-09-08 04:30:00 | I'm trying it now. Thanks for that. :) | pcuser42 (130) | ||
| 702758 | 2008-09-08 06:15:00 | Perfect, almost. I've tweaked it a bit to change the password and actually make them enter one to close it. :) Now to figure out how to lock the computer as well. :D |

| 702759 | 2008-09-08 22:19:00 | You could even get tricky and increment/decrement gap between equations, with a floor/ceiling, say -remove 30 seconds for each incorrect answer and add 30 seconds for each correct answer, tops 15 mins. | sal (67) | ||
| 702760 | 2008-09-08 22:42:00 | Thing is, he spends a lot of time on the computer Which is why he isn't learning his maths. How about, he answers correctly a certain number of maths questions (and some study) and then he is allowed on the PC. But not before. |
