i ask that to myself all the time. its hard this day and age when all the commercials on tv and radio beg you to go online to check out all the latest stuff they feature or for promotions. email and instant messaging is at an all time high for communication.
the internet has made it very hard for us to keep away from the computer, but while its entertaining, its unhealthy to always go on as i find myself looking for new e-mail every couple of minutes. i think the best you can do is find something else that you enjoy doing that will take your mind off of being on the computer. that might include reading, crosswords, sudoku, hanging out with friends and family, enjoying whats outside, etc. typically, if you find something you will like, then the time will pass by and you wont check the computer as often. if you dont have any hobbies you can try to learn a new one such as cooking, crafts, or starting a collection.
you can also try to leave your computer off unless you want to use it. some people including myself leave it on for a day or 2 at a time because 1. we're lazy 2. we wont have to wait for it to startup. obviously, i cant be taken away from the computer since im writing such a lengthy response to a simple question...so, good luck. =)

Discipline ... it takes discipline .... you have to want to give up the computer ...it's like any addiction ... you've taken the first step in admitting you're addicted ... you need to set an amount of time per day that you can access your computer and for the rest of that time go out somewhere ... kick a ball ... go to the park ..the beach .... read ... watch TV if that's all you've got ... you'll make it ... I have faith in you :)
Good Luck
