My software is a computer monitoring tool.
When the user runs out of time, he is kindly asked to close the session. If
he doesn't, the software does... that's why the user should not be able to
delay/cancel the log-out.
I'll give a shot at Stephen's method. Is there any guarantee that the
session *will* close if all other processes have been killed?
