Fair point I think Rich's idea is safer by just plugging the monitor into the timer but it will face the same problem...although the answer is simple:
Stick a big sticker on the timer saying "If you unplug anything from this device make sure to reset it afterwards or else...(and then something nasty involving loss of extremities, the fact we have the fingerprints and DNA etc...:))))" Hmmm... A kiosk sytstem like that could provide new job opportunities... A trained technician that would do it manualy two times a day...plug..unplug..plug..unplug...but then you'll have to deal with the human factor:))) Neah...sod it... Eva just use the grc.com tool!

That would make the timer and the clock of the computer get asynchronised.
