Like to have the correct time?  This free program will ping an Atomic clock and set your computer clock to the correct time.  This is NOT adware.  It is completely free.  Great program.

Bishop,
While online run the program from your Start button.  When the program comes up, left click on [b]Ping Atomic Clock[/b].  After it pings the server, if your clock is more than 15 sec off the program will let you know and ask if you want it to adjust your clock.  Click yes, then exit.  You're done.

One Atomic Clock has got pretty much the same time as another.  I really think that may be the point.

Except for Bishop.  Hey Bishop, are you running a firewall?  Zone Alarm?  You've got to let that program through, you know.

Hey Bishop:
I couldn't set my clock at first either.  Had to go in my firewall program and set new rules for it like David M said.  Works fine now.
