StopGame is a new utility that allows parents and employers to control how much time their kids and employees spend playing games on the computer.

The "home edition" is currently available, while the "office edition" is targeted to launch August 20.

You can define how much time is allowed per day for each game, as well as how much per week, and you can also define when a game can be played. If a child or employee goes beyond these limits, StopGame shuts the game down.

So if you've got a receptionist that spends more time playing Solitaire than making photocopies, here's your ticket.
