Desktop clock with date

Hi, could anybody recommend a desktop clock with date that I can download to replace my XP one as its not very clear. I have searched the web and have seen some but not sure if free ones come with spyware etc, so a recommended clean one would be good,

thanks

 

I have been using TClock Lite for about a year and have had no problems. Found it over at techsupportalert which has a lot of freeware suggestions.

Mine is set to display day of week, date, time-showing seconds and I have adjusted the font to a larger size (old age) and adjusted the background colors behind the date and tray icons. Also have removed the start button and access start menu by clicking on date. Very easy to use (help file is not much help-but easy to figure out)and small.

Hi jeffw224, I was recommended TClock Lite yesterday but when I downloaded it (from the same site you suggested) my Windows Defender Antispyware flagged it as a nastie, the bloke who recommended it said that would happen but to ignore it but old paranoid me got rid of it:-/. I'll have a search and see if I can find some info on the spyware alert being a false alarm and if so I'll give it a go.

Thanks

 

It is odd that I did not get that even though I had Defender. But apparently a good number of people do.

This is what Gizmo at techsupportalert says:

"Note that you might get a warning from your security software that TClock is potential spyware. It's not. It's just picking up the fact that it modifies explorer.exe to display the clock"

 

I'll give it a go I think, thanks jeff.

 

Hey Joe

Thought I'd give you a link to Softpedia for TClock:

http://www.softpedia.com/get/Desktop-Enhancements/Clocks-Time-Management/TClock.shtml

They do test the software and have certified it malware free. Latest test was April, 2007.

Also on that page if you click the "Clocks and Time Management" link under category, it will bring up many other softwares that do similar.

I have had no problems with TClock.

 

Thanks for your time jeff, I'll give it a go
