There actually is an excellent program for keeping your computer "on
time". It is free (care ware) and it corrects for propogation delay on
the web by pinging and timing. It uses multiple time standards such as
the Naval Observatory and NIST, etc. If you are running 95/98 and IE4.X
you can just download it at
http://www.arachnoid.com/lutusp/ftp/abouttime_msie.zip. I have used this
program for years and it cured my back ache, increased my potency, and
gives my laundry brighter colors and whiter whites at the same time.
