Default Software that reminds you to 'Take a Break'
I just downloaded this program, so I didn't try it out yet but I am a prime candidate for a program that reminds me to 'take a break'. As I am typing this post I can see a 'reminder' on my screen telling me 'it's time for a break'. I am starting to have pains in my left wrist so I hope this will help me. Will post an update how it works out. Here is the link if you want to give it a try.

Thanks for sharing this JoCarole. I am curious if it will help you. I would be afraid I would just ignore that too.

Lee, it's been on my computer since yesterday. It is a little annoying I have to admit. I just logged on and I got a reminder almost immediately telling me to 'take a break'. I think the idea is good but the developer of this program should slow it down a bit. If I took all the breaks it is telling me to take, I would not get anything done. I like how it gives you exercise reminders which only was once yesterday. I don't like when I am typing and one of the reminders makes it necessary to have to click on 'postpone' to keep on typing. Oops, another reminder just came up and the border is flashing red. I probably will remove it today, it is making me crazy.
