                         Purpose of the programm
                         =======================

This program was especially developed for internet cafes but it is very
useful for anyone who want to give limited access to a computer for a
limited period of time. The program has two main functions: 

1. TimeWatcher gives access to a computer for a certain period of time.
   After this period it locks the computer.

2. TimeWatcher controls the access to a computer. A supervisor can create
   a list of forbidden programs. While TimeWatch is running, it prevents
   the usage of these programs.


                            History of TimeWatcher
                            ======================

Version 1.0: First Release on June 16, 1998 under the name TimeWatch

Version 2.0: Released August 5, 1998

     + Better lock function: Now TimeWatch should lock every computer
     + New Log Function: TimeWatch can write every action into a Log-File
     + New Options Dialog: Should be much easier to use
     + Fixed bug in Security Dialog: User can't exit Security Dialog without
       entering a password or security code. That avoids, that a user just
       waits for random numbers, he knows the code of.
     + Fixed bug in Timing Mode Dialog: Pressing the button 'Exit Timing
       Mode' while the Timing Mode is paused doesn't cause problems any more

Version 3.0 Released October 13, 1998 - Name changed to TimeWatcher
because of copyrights.
     
     + Minor changes to make TimeWatcher fully compatible to Windows98
     + Fixed bug: It won't be possible anymore to start TimeWatcher more
       than one time
     + Lock function improved: Mouspointer is now limited to the TimeWatcher
       Window. This should improve the lock function
     + Fixed bug: Online help removed from the secured dialogs, because in a
       very tricky way it is possible to start programs out of the windows
       online help. Now the program provides the help itself
     + Fixed bug: Windows, which have the "always on top" option enabled,
       will now also be covered by the blocking window
     + Added Hotkey support to dialogs
     + New Direct Access Code Function implemented
     + Help window funtion for Options Dialog added
     + Fixed bug: Entering letters instead of numbers for the time could
       freeze the program
     + Fixed bug in options Dialog - Log-File can't now be empty anymore
     + Fixed bug: Pausing Timer blocks now system completly
     + Improved the 'Get Titel Function'
