Is there a program from Microsoft or another company that would prevent the manual changing of the date & time on a Windows 7 computer?

We have a child who knows they can subvert the parental time limit control by simply changing the date and time on the computer thereby giving themselves extra "free" time.

I've done some searching on line but realize there are probably better ways to "ask" for directions.

I am afraid the kid will outsmart you whatever you do. Why not use the old fashioned egg timer.

it might be possible to remove it from displaying in the tray, all together.
later you can add one of those clock gadgets / widgets that you can peek at for the time.
right on task abr and select "properties" > hit the notifications tab, and ....

You can set this up in the group policy manager. Type in gpedit.MSC to access the tool.
