World Clock software

for those of you that have them, which world clock software do you use on the desktop (Windows)? I need an easy lookup of a time in a certain place type program so that I don't call someone at 3am in the morning

also, I'm looking for the world time clock v1.1 plugin for trillian if anyone know where I can download it, that would be great. Please do not say the trillian site as the link there is dead.

I recently tested sevreal of these in searching for one that fit my requirements. I settled on Smart Time World Clock (sic?).

But then I installed Firefox and the FoxClocks extension - and no more need for separate worldclock software. ^ ^ ^

thanks for all the responses... I chose Foxclocks... simple interface and does not take up much space.

Do you need to be online to use Foxclocks? If so and that is a problem, a utility that allows you to run as many different city clocks as you like on your desktop is WinZones by Extend Softward I have been using this since Windows 95.

Simple, elegant, small.

I got foxclocks and have a few cities at the bottom of my screen. Good stuff. But now popups and some links I actually want to see come up in non-expanding thin vertical windows. Not good stuff. Anyone else get this?

The thing is so dead simple that they have never changed it. It has been running just fine with XP Pro. I called them up when XP came out, and they said to go for it.

I downloaded the FoxClocks. It is very nice, but only shows when a browser is open as far as I can tell. I will keep it, but use the WinZones for when I am off line.
