Most all of us if not every single one of us have and use atleast one pc running windows.  We all need from time to time a calendar.  is my next bday on a fri or sat???  and what do most ppl do??? they double click the clock and scroll thru the months and years looking for the day.  how many times has someone jacked up the time for something just like this?  Well, I support over 70 companies at upwards 150 sites with 10-20 users at each site.  

This happens more than I care to count. I am guilty of it too, although not so much since sunbird and outlook have great calendars....

still, my clients need to be prevented if not outright denied easy access to the adjust date/time function.  but, still feel they are not be handcuffed.  

The answer I found,

TxClocks This thing is preety cool.  first of all it can be made to look exactly like the normal clock if you just want to make it a little harder to mistakenly change the time.  Secondly, you can set it up to pull up a calendar that is not linked to the system date!  Third it is freeware, and forth it not only prevents the "accidental " adjustment of dates and times but it actualy improves your system clock's functionality.   you can display time, day, date yeare memory usage, cpu usage, internet time, julian date, and other stuff easily.
