yea I know this belongs in the "Hardare/software" Forum but I kinda need it tonight and this forum is more frequentd then the others

Anyone know of a reliable and virus free alarmclock program I can DL and use on the computer?

As some of you know My son is at the "National Youth Leadership Forum" in Washington DC and I have to pick him up tomorrow at 10:00 AM
which means I have to leave here at like 5:00 AM to pick him up. Which means I have to get up like 4-4:30. But I dont want to wake everyone up in the house so Im planning on crashing in "the Computer room" as we call it here and rather then move and reset up one of the house alarms only to have to move and reset it back I thought it would be a cool idea to just install an alarm on the computer and use that.
Would also come in handy when I become too involved online and loose track of time.
Anyway. Im looking for an alrm clock I can use on the PC and I need it tonight.

thanks

Here it is http://www.karenware.com/powertools/ptalarm.asp This works like a charm. Plus you don't need to register to get it.

Picked up trial version of "Aquarious soft Pc Alrm Pro" and found a copy of Reveille to use as the alarm sound.

Im up so it must have worked well enough. LOL

Now as long as I can stay awake the whole way down there I'll be ok LOL

thanks anyway. Appreciate the effort

Finding someone reliable enough to throw it at you at the proper time is the hard part.

Another neat trick is to drink a ton of water before going to bed... Just about guaranteed to wake you up in 5-6 hours.
