There are several available. What you want is an "NTP Client" program (NTP 
is Network Time Protocol). They work by synchronizing with any of dozens of 
servers on the internet that maintain accurate time. Once the NTP client is 
installed, your machine will be within a few milliseconds of the correct 
UTC all the time (at least, while you're connected to the internet.)

Tardis is one of the easiest to use: http://www.kaska.demon.co.uk/tardis.htm

And if you have multiple PCs on your home network, there's a companion 
program called "K9" that you can run on the other machines and they'll sync 
up with the machine running Tardis.

To find others, go to Google and search on "NTP Client" - you could also 
visit www.tucows.com and search there.
