Chill mate.............

First of all, i would suggest u to change ur pic.

About ur problem, if u go on a holiday, then is it like no one will be at home. Then i suggest that u dont think about automatin ur pc.

You can use WSH(Windows Scripting Host) to automate your PC , but it is a Scripting Environment n ou'l have to write your own script to do whatever u want .

Yeah, pls dont automate your pc. Its not good for pc's health & you never know weather if your AV/FW goes down meanwhile internet/downloading is in progress. And you can't think further in such situations. Better you download or connect to internet at night times, whenver you or anyone will be at home

@keep_it_rl m extremely sorry for my mistake. Actually was in hurry and messed up the words which i was supposed to type somewhere else.

And about the pic, yes, initially i felt it was weird. Wasn't able to understand what exactly do you want to portray.

Once again, sorry:oops: for the fuss i created.
