Hi folks!

If this is the wrong place to ask, or there is a FAQ, please redirect
me!

How do I use Demon's time-server to reset my W98 system clock, when
connecting using a) Outlook 2000, b) Outlook Express?

(yes, I know I'm using TP6 here, but the question is on behalf of other
users who are required to use OE or Outlook)

TIA,

Sounds good, thanks, Tony. However, an ideal for me would be something
that was only invoked when you made a connection (I and those for whom
I'm enquiring are only on dial-up).

Nevertheless, if there are no further recommendations from the assembled
hordes, I'll go with your suggestion. Thanks again.

Would it be possible to have a copy of the list of time hosts - or
perhaps you could post it here?

Many thanks

If you get an email that says "send this to lots of people", it's
probably some sort of hoax. Check www.hoaxbusters.org
