Has anybody seen a web service that can check the date. I wish to use this
as a simple shut down for a software product. Instead of checking the
computer's date, which can be changed by the user, I could require an
Internet connection and check the real date with a web service. A simple yet
effective way to shut down a program. Anybody seen this web service?

Please do not x-post questions like this to the Windows Forms newsgroup.

Since it's a web service issue, I think you can get more help from the web
service group. You can re-post it to web service group.
