This clock utility bundles several related and unrelated features in a tiny package. Clock Plus adds a small, skinnable digital clock, showing military time, to your desktop. You can configure its settings through the tray icon. You can schedule alarms with standard bell or open application notifications and also create reminders. While we have come to expect alarm and calendar features in competitive clock applications, we were surprised to find an MP3 tag editor, a picture viewer, a search tool, Internet links to preloaded URLs, and a calculator included in the package. You also can schedule the program to execute shutdown actions. Folks seeking an attractive, free clock with plenty of bells and whistles will find Clock Plus a suitable choice.
What happened to DanC. also happened to me, with some variation. As with Dan, when I tried to configure the new program, it shut down my windows system. However, I didn't have to go to the DOS C:/ prompt to get rid of the thing -- I was able to uninstall the program from the "add/delete" program menu. No harm done in the end, but this program obviously has some serious bugs.
Summary
once installed accessed options, shut down windows

Pros
Allows you to easily see the time on your machine, runs to same time as your pc. With the skinable interface makes its great and suitable for near any desktop. The extra menus and stuff are just extras but an alarm is good.
Cons
I guess being able to download new skins would be nice. Generally runs over most apps but not all, generally this applies to things set to be ontop.
