I'm using Outlook Express and Internet Explorer. I am connected to the internet, through Earthlink. I've tried to update my time with the server, to no avail.
I'm also afraid to log off the internet, and afraid that if I do, I may not be able to reconnect to the internet. Is that a rational concern? Should I be concerned that my Wallstreet may not be able to restart if I try that, or if my system crashes. In other words, I don't know how vital that Date & Time control panel is to the operation of my computer and to my ability to go online if whatever is wrong goes uncorrected. Is it possible that if I restart that things will be back to normal? Could it be that what is corrupted is one of these system files which is in RAM?
