In addition to the 24hr clock in the system tray (or "Notification Area" as I think they now call it), I have TClockEx (
http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/fil...scription.html) running on startup to provide the date as well. Highly configurable to the date/day/time format of your choice. I do believe it also has timezone capababilities built in, but I already have another clock (well, wristwatch actually) close to UTC.
