I have a similar problem to the one described earlier, but regarding the Date, not the Time. I am using XP Home Edition, and have had it running for about one year. Up to two weeks ago, I had no trouble with the Date. However, twice within the last two weeks, I noticed that the Date had changed without me having adjusted it. For example, today is May 14, 2004, but the Date on the Taskbar (and in emails that I sent earlier in the day) was showing Sunday May 9, 2004. The Time Zone is set correctly. The time is correct. No Virus or Worm detected on my system. Has anyone else experienced this, and if so, is there an explanation?
