Windoff
5.0 is a fantastic freeware program will make it possible
to indicate when you want your computer and monitor shut down, closing
each program, to a maximum limit of 99 hours, 59 minutes and 59
seconds ( this means 4 days and 4 hours). For example: you can leave
your computer Internet-connected from Friday at 6 pm , and indicate
that it will shut down on Sunday.
You don´t have to stay at home, neither you have to be awake
on nightime waiting fo your computer finish its tasks or Internet-downloading,
in the same way, if you have a TV card, program WindOFF for the
hours you want to watch TV from your bed without worry about if
you get slept (the computer will shut down by itself).
Aswell you don´t be late for dates because WindOFF
will notify
you with a sound alarm which you can program as the same way
that you program for shut down.

Don´t
worry about the state of your computer after shut down
because WindOFF can capture diferents screens in JPG format
(only 130 Kb each full screen) along the time programed, so
you
can see what was happend when you restart your computer.. |
