Hi,
This is a bit off-topic, but I've had no success in other newsgroups,
and you guys may be more knowledgeable.
I'm looking for a free tool (some sort of 'dashboard', maybe something
like the XP SP2 Windows Security Center) that can monitor the status of
a number of regular tasks my PC performs.
I know I could write this kind of app myself in C++ or Java, but I'm
sure there must be something out there that does this already.
Overnight, my PC does a Windows Backup, Anti-Virus scan, Anti-Spyware
scan and a Defender scan.
Each of these tasks has an individual return status.
I'd like an app that can monitor this status, and in the morning,
report on it, even just by showing status lights (like Green for ok,
Red for a non-successful status) so that I can investigate further.
Being able to monitor another PC on my network as well (my file server)
would be even better.
Any suggestions very much appreciated.
