If you are running Windows XP, you'll never have to worry about manually setting your computer's clock again!
Just double-click the little clock in the System Tray and it will bring up the Time and Date Properties screen. Click the Internet Time tab and you'll see a button that lets you instantly synchronize your clock with one on the internet. You'll have to be online for this to work.
Also, you'll notice that there's a check box on that screen that says "Automatically synchronize with an internet time server." If you uncheck that box, you won't be able to do a manual synchronization as described above. However with this feature enabled your clock will automatically update its time once a week - all by itself.
Isn't technology just great?
