Time of the year again to 'spring forward'. checked NIST web site to get
current time---web site down (what a half-assed operation).


JFTR, you can find the NISTIME utility for both 16 and 32 bit Windows
(along with sources) on their FTP server:
ftp://time.nist.gov/pub/daytime/
Been using the thing for ages, it was the only such Win 3.1x app I found
at the time... 1998 or so. The nice thing is that once configured it can
run invisibly in the background, and it needs almost zero system
resources (about 1% of the system resources in 3.1x, and a few hundred K
of memory). It has been working flawlessly for me (meanwhile in the more
full-featured 32 bit version), as long as the configured server isn't
down of course. One of my classic indispensible utilities from my WfW
3.11 days, along with WS_FTP LE and Paint Shop Pro (used 3.12-32 for a
long time and upgraded to 4.12 not too long ago).
