This probably ends in the registry somewere... type some random garbage,
save, and seach the registry for this string... then edit the registry
to put the correct url there. Or use a url shortener service....

Whee! Chris: the text box in the xp clock set window is ONE CHARACTER too
short to contain the suggested url. It just gets better and better.

I did see some retries going to time.windows.com.
I'd suggest changing to 0.north-america.pool.ntp.org if you live in
North America
It took several seconds to get time form time.windows.com but
0.north-america.pool.ntp.org had no delay.

1) It is set to use an NTP server called "time.windows.com"
to set the clock.
3) The above is working as well as it has ever worked.
Nothing has changed at Microsoft's end.
It may be more complicated than that.
time.windows.com is a cname for time.microsoft.akadns.net
That's Akami's DNS magic to give you the closest/best server.
I'm in Silicon Valley. I get either 65.55.56.206 or 64.4.10.33
64.4.10.33 only works some of the time. It's not random packet drops. It
drops out for a while, then recovers.
65.55.56.206 is similar, but seems to work more often, at least from my
hacking of the last few minutes.
Both IP ranges are assigned to Microsoft. Neither responds to pings.
You will probably see different results if you are in a different location.
