Back in the days of Windows 3.1, one could click onto a log which showed how much time one spent on the computer. When I upgraded, the phone bill (dial-up) showed how many minutes, nay hours, I was on the internet. Now I have Firefox and don’t know if there is such a logging available and with broadband, I still don’t know. Perhaps it is best that I don’t know just how much I’m on here. Mostly on FR too! Thanks, Jim!!!! and everyone else. Best place to be.
As for your thoughtfulness, Wardenclyffe, thank you.
“Back in the days of Windows 3.1, one could click onto a log” ....for time online...
You could actually do that with: control panel > double left click: network connections > double left click on the icon for your particular type of connection. It will give you a status/time connected/speed readout.
This is for XP, with cable or DSL. Some variation of that would work for a wireless connection, I’m sure. Of course with an “always on” type of connection, this will essentially be simply the amount of “on” time for your computer...including the 2 hours you spent on word proc or whatever. And, if you don’t shut down your computer overnight, well, that’s a different story.
