Vista and Office clock problem

[xessq]

Sounds like a system problem moreso than an Office problem. Try posting to a
group for your version of Windows to see if anyone there has an answer.

I have Media Center 2005 with all available updates. I just reinstalled the
OS and all programs last week and ended up with the same problem. No matter
what I do I cannot get the PC clock to sync with the online clock from any
provider. So the problem just does not involve VISTA. By any chance are you
running Norton Internet Security 2007? I was thinking that the problem may
have had something to do with a recent NIS update.

If you find the answer, please let me know. I have been pulling my hair out
trying to figure this out. I even uninstalled and reinstalled both framework
2 and 3 to see if that would resolve the problem and it did not. Also tried
unregistering and re-registering the w32time service and that did not help
either.
