Thanks. I don't think I've ever gotten XP's time server service to keep
correct time. For many years (probably when I was still running
Win2000) I've used Dimension 4. It just sits there quietly keeping the
correct time. It syncs up with a web time server of your choice at a
frequency that you specify. Highly recommended.
