Does anyone know why my pc's clock keeps getting set back by exactly 3 hours. I will adjust it to the correct time & then maybe the next time I am on, I look and it's 3 hours behind again. It doesn't happen as soon as I am on, but after I am on for quite some time.

and Time folder in the Control Panel and check...

Sounds like the PC is still set to PT (Pacific Time) Zone and your
live in ET (Eastern Time) Zone - so of course everytime XP goes out to
sync to clock, it adjusts for being PT instead of ET - net result, 3
hours behind.
