A free timer, called Minute Timer, is available from PC-Tools.net. It's very small and simple; just sounds an alarm when the specified time has elapsed. There's an option to run only when minimized, so if you stop browsing for a while to go to the bathroom you can pause the timer just by clicking on it in the task bar.
