If you spend all day working on a computer, it is easy
to become fatigued and tired. There is also some
evidence to suggest that sitting at a computer for
hours on end can cause fatal blood clots. Rest Break
sits quietly in the system tray and at the specified
interval reminds you to take a break. Rest break
uses a Smart Timer that resets itself when it detects
that you are not at your computer. * The user can
determines how often to have a rest break. * The
user can determines how long each rest break should
be. * Select your own sound file to play when its
time for a break. * Optional Smart Timer detects
when you are not working on your PC, and resets the
work timer. * Random images displayed when its time
for a break. * Optional audible alert 10 seconds
before a break commences. * Option to force user to
have a break - The Rest Break window cannot be closed
when this option is set. * Option to defer the
break for a few minutes. If you are in the middle of
something this lets you keep working, but doesn't let
you forget to take a break. * Captures the mouse,
and disables the ALT-CTL-DEL key and ALT-TAB keys if a
break is compulsory. This way the user must wait for
the break to end. Note - The compulsory break is an
option, and is not mandatory * Starts automatically
with Windows. You don't need to start the application
manually each day. * Exit application by selecting
File-Exit on the application menu. Built-in checks
to eliminate the chance of inadvertently exiting the
application when you really want to minimise it to the
system tray.
