Or, you can mostly do it for free using the built in
command: net user user_name /time:login_times
http://www.dougknox.com/xp/tips/xp_restrict_users.htm
is one example.
NOTE: this does prevent them from logging on after the
specified time, but it does NOT force them off from a
workgroup machine when the time expires. It does
answer the first part of your question though about keeping
them from logging in.
