[GreenKeys] Western-Union time service

[Web Williams]

Windows XP has built-in internet time service, it works
silently by polling a time service that is user selectable. I
assume that Windows Vista carried the technology over
to it as well (I have no plans to downgrade from XP Pro
to Vista anything due to remaining MS-DOS software
still on my system).
