What program to take to track the time of work at the computer (time tracker)?

We need a program that automatically keeps track of the active window and records how much time was spent in each of the programs.
Requirements:
* Separate accounting of the time spent in different programs
* Separate accounting of the sites on which I sit (I google the solution or hang out on Habré). Maybe certain sites are driven into a special list for accounting separately from other sites (social networks, YouTube, etc.) * Automatically detects
that I left because of the computer, and stops accounting , some programs in the window title have only their name, and some add to the current open document) * periodic screenshots (like in oDesk).
I even think to take and write such a program myself, but there is no time. Although on the other hand, such a program will save a lot of time ...

We reviewed all the listed systems and settled on the Bitcop Security time tracking system . In my opinion, it has everything that is necessary for a full-fledged accounting of time, and not just the start and end times of work.

If on a Mac, then I advise Timing .app, a very convenient program that monitors everything that happens on the computer (you can exclude anything), reports for different periods of time, you can find out starting from which site you hung up on more, how much time you spent in terminal, IDE or player. Plus, some of the categories into which applications are divided are already driven in: office, development, media, etc. In general, I recommend considering it as an option, in the end I settled on it (and I probably tried everything that I could reach), it hangs in the background, you don’t know about it until you need to check it, you can quickly find out from the graphs when and how long did you work. (must have for gtd)
