Need a simple program that will reside in Windows System Tray. The utility will function similar to Windows Scheduled Task Manager, in that a user can specify a shut down time (and applicable days of the week). The tricky part will be the auto power-on. In addition to specifing the shut down time the user will also be able to specify the start up time. Note this is not from sleep mode, this is a start up from a complete system shut down. For example, the user could specifiy that the system will shut down each day at 2:30am, and then restart again at 3:30am. You can see an available Windows product with this functionality here: <[login to view URL]> Would like very efficient, compact program. Doesn't need a lot of bells and whistles other than being able to specify the shut down days and times. (Radio buttons will be fine to indicate days of the week where shut down is required). ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a) For web sites or other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law. Buyer will receive exclusive and complete copyrights to all work purchased. (No GPL, GNU, 3rd party components, etc. unless all copyright ramifications are explained AND AGREED TO by the buyer on the site per the coder's Seller Legal Agreement). * * *This broadcast message was sent to all bidders on Monday Mar 14, 2005 1:09:46 PM: I have had a lot of questions on this bid. All of them ask the same thing. This is a power-on from a complete shut-down (not standby or hibernate). I know it is possible because this software works. D/L it for yourself and try it out. Somehow this company has figured out how to do this: [login to view URL] They have a free 30 day evaluation, so you can install it and see how it works. Thanks. ## Platform Windows XP
