<description><![CDATA[Hmm.  Been using it for a while, and it's been on all day.  Now, mid-afternoon, a dialog pops up again and again, a WinLog Assist error dialog, "LastInputInfo error".  I've had to click it about a dozen times and it kept coming back.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[This is very helpful program for me, a lot of projects of mine are paid per hour - so it is gives freedom to think about work and not about watch. Later I will collect hours I really spend on this work and can send a bill without bad conscious. Thanks a lot!]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[#35 Fubar.  Thanks for the info. -- WinLog Assist does indeed seem to filter out its own time data.  However, this then increases the time for some other slice.  Thank goodness, it won't impact me much, but some of the commenters talk about using it for billing their customers -- if they bill for 300 minutes (based on WinLog Assist) when they only worked 270, they've overbilled.  If they say "I took 300 minutes" and another programmer says "Gee, I only took 270", they've made themselves look unproductive.

What it comes down to is, WinLog Assist does not just leave out the numbers for its own use.  It gives numbers for everything else that are, well, wrong.  I know, I know, the numbers are close, close enough for me.  But, if one uses it for billing ... they're wrong.

I see that "AutoRun" sticks WinLog Assist into your list of programs that run when you log in.  I see that "Auto Pause" is a timeout to tell the thing when to stop counting a window's time (i.e., I turned Auto Pause off, and later that day WinLog Assist told me all about my screensaver).

Ashraf: I see from Ashraf's review that "Locking Quit" is supposed to keep one from turning WinLog Assist off.  (I haven't been able to get that to work yet.)

Fubar, Ashraf, thanks for the explanation of projects in Ashraf's review.

Still don't have a way to reset the numbers except to wait past midnight.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Using "Log" in the title -- as in "logger" -- is certain to heavily bias these ratings. A "logger" encounters ideological objections, plus "loggers" are simpler, cheaper programs. The developer should take away a message about the product's name, not its  quality.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Good
- Recognizes tabs in browser (opera)

Bad

- only timed when you actively select a window.

Conclusion:
Gives me an idea how much time i spend per application.

Works as advertised.  I like statistics, so i am keeping this program. :)]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I'd like to clarify my comment from earlier today. To be clear, I much prefer my Windows Vista to my XP system. Like it or not, thats my choice. It seemed to take forever to get it right but thats because I'm a perfectionist. I reformatted many times due to what the next guy would have considered a minor annoyance. Again, my choice. But to be clear, 95% of my issues from day one, (way back in February 2007) were caused by software. Not hardware or drivers because the hardwares fine in my machine &amp; I update my drivers as often as new releases are available to the consumer.
There has been &amp; remains today, way to many applications that claim Vista compatibility when in actually their not, but rather fly by night publishers trying to keep their share of our money. The same applies to way to many free applications. It simply took such a long time for me to weed these programs out &amp; learn which ones actually do support Vista. That &amp; continued updates, patches &amp; the service packs finally did it. Now, it's faster, more stable &amp; certainly looks better then any XP I've seen &amp; I own all three. It's a funny thing but XP freezes, Windows Explorer crashes on XP when those problems never occur on Vista, at least not on mine.
Now to clarify what I meant about XP to defrag my slave &amp; external hard drives. It has been &amp; remains the ONLY safe defrag that can compact files on that particular drive, keeping it running at its best &amp; I've tried them all. On Vista, I use AUSLogics free defrag &amp; it suits me fine as I have no need to sweat compacting those files. Vista will put them back where they were in a matter of days anyway and the one in Vista positively sucks.
Once again, about Almeza Company, I'd rather have GOTD shut down for a day then to offer garbage reruns like this company makes. I've seen them all &amp; they have one thats fair. That would be their PIM which I have installed on both Vista &amp; XP.
I'm not knocking anyone elses opinion but thats mine, plain &amp; simple.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I installed this on Vista Home Premium with no problems and it works like a charm.
As far as I can see, the auto pause stops the time recording after the interval of inactivity that you choose. If you input projects then they show up on the screen with other timed activities. ie you can monitor the time spent on your important projects.
I agree with others that you have the choice whether to use this or not and should not whinge about it until you know what you are talking about - that is have taken it for a test run and figured out what it can or cannot do for you. If you do not have a need for a tool like this, fine, but that does not mean that it is useless or bad.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Hi all!!

This program looks good for employers to spy on their workers at work or for parents to check what their kids actually do whenever they use their PC at home, but it's pretty useless for home use IMHO.


BEST FREEWARE ALTERNATIVES (forget RESCUETIME.COM if you take your privacy seriously...LOL!!!) 


- PC Fare Meter
- Work Tracker
- Timeloc 1 (needs the free Adobe AIR software first)
- PTimer 1.5.1
- My Time Manager 1.0.1




But if you need a professional software for effective PROJECT MANAGEMENT to maximize the profitability of your business keeping track of the exact time spent on a particular application  or project (Time is Money, right??), I definetely suggest you having a look at these 2 little and pretty unknowm FREE TOOLS: 


- actiTIME Basic 1.5:
http://www.download.com/actiTIME-Basic/3000-2076_4-10852404.html?tag=mncol

- Advanced Time Reports Personal Edition:
http://www.softpedia.com/get/Others/Finances-Business/Advanced-Time-Reports-Personal-Edition.shtml


An intuitive time tracking &amp; project management solution that will help you increase your billable hours by better managing all your projects, clients and working hour.

With this tool you can keep your project history so that you can retrieve it when you need it as well as create detailed project reports so you can compare your schedule to initial project estimate.



Cheers
