While it is natural to ask questions about tardis here I don't remember the last time anyone asked anything here about the product. There have been lots of complaints about tardis's bad behavior at one time but I believe all of those have been corrected. Having said that I would guess that there is something wrong with your DNS lookup. Check your settings: ipconfig/all from the DOS prompt and try and decide whether or not the DNS servers listed belong to your ISP (assuming this is personal) ot your business (assuming this is inside your office). There have been a number of attacks recently affecting DHCP provisioning which causes (among other things) the DNS servers to be replaced with rogue DNS Servers. Check for the Trojan.Flush.M virus. You are better off installing the free Windows version of ntp reference implementation in which case you would get lots of answers here. Why pay for something that you can get for free and for that matter is far better even on Windows? Check out Meinberg's installer here: http://www.meinberg.de/english/sw/ntp.htm and you will never look back.
