Computer clock

Does anyone know of an automatic method/site/program of keeping my computer clock on current time (like the radio signal clocks)?

Atomic clock, I've used it for years, small and reliable.

Assuming you have XP, you can have your computer get the current time from either windows.com, or some .gov site automatically from within date/time settings within the control panel. I personally don't trust M$ so I do it manually but I'm sure there are other websites that do the same thing that are more trust worthy than M$'s own site. Unfortunately, I can't think of any at the moment - can anyone remember such a site?

If you don't want to use the inbuilt doobry in XP, you're looking for an NTP client.

If you want to use a server other than the ones listed, you need a public NTP server - a google for "public NTP servers" should throw up a decent list.

Looks good. I'm running 98SE so downloaded this one. Thanks to all who responded so quickly.
