I want to limit my 4 kids time individually on the
computer each day on windows xp. Is there some kind of
timer on xp? Or some program I can get?

Not Exactly what you are looking for.. but may be of some value.
The program I used to recommend seems to have vanished.
Situation: You want to restrict the logon days / times of a user
account in XP and are a standalone machine.
Reason: You may wish to restrict teens who arrive home before adult
supervision from accessing your broadband always on connection, limit
employees to only work hours access etc..
Steps:
To Set restrictions:
1.. Click Start
2.. Click Run
3.. Type cmd in the run box and press enter.
4.. The following is a sample of what you would type:
net user testuser /times:M-F,5pm-9pm; Sa,6am-9pm;Su,6am-9pm
Where testuser is the local account name.
To Remove Restrictions:
1.. Click Start
2.. Click Run
3.. Type cmd in the run box and press enter.
4.. The following is a sample of what you would type:
net user testuser /times:all
Where testuser is the local account name.
