Recomended software and software that locks applications?

[iron man]

hi guys so i finally ordered my y500a and i'm awaiting delivery. can anyone recomend good software to load it with. i want to keep this thing as clean as possible.

i'm looking for productivity software(i'm a uni student) that'll help me plan my days and weeks and just all round good software to have.

also does anyone know of software that locks applications during certain times? like if i have games on my pc and i only want to be able to play them on the weekend i can lock the apps so that they don't run during the week? is there anything like that?

thanks

^ That would help. Also what operating system is running on it?

I see in your signature that you have a desktop machine.
So the solution to lock away games is to not install any games on the Y500a device

Who are you trying to lock out of games during the week? If yourself then you simply choose only to play them on the weekend. If you used an application to lock yourself out would you have someone else install it and have them swear not to give you the password even if you beg or threaten to kill them?

Set up two user profiles for the computer. Delete all the unneeded apps and shortcuts on the second user. That's free and works very well for separating your desktop for different purposes.
