should not be TOO hard to do.
Just have a wee program running (hidden) on the machine, or if its on
winnt, win 2k or XP boxes, running as a service, that emails a specific
address that you can setup.
You then have a program running on a mchine that checked that email
address every whatever time interval you want, it then puts the data
into a database.
The other way, would require you to have a webserver on a machine at
your work, and the progrma on the client machine HTTP POSTS the info to
a webpage which puts it into a databse for you.
