If your computer is on Tulsa time...

If the time shown in the bottom right corner of your Windows XP screen--or elsewhere in your computer--is in accurate, the nice folks at Help With Windows (http://www.helpwithwindows.com/) have a solution for you at http://www.helpwithwindows.com/windowsxp/tune-17.html.

My computer seems to have had an annoying habit of running behind schedule, accumulating a delay of some forty minutes between the time the computer was updated, by default, every week.

These nice geeks showed me how to set the computer to update every 10,000 seconds instead 604,800 second default interval.
