Is the old "Clock" available somehow?

Minor item I'd really like on my office XP machine: The
basic clock that was available on Windows versions through
Win 2000. Is it anywhere in XP?

Thanks

I've looked and can't find either. Apparently not. I've not done
anything about it and have gotten used to viewing the clock on the
system tray.

I've considered getting a copy of clock.exe from an other machine, or
finding some free program on the internet, or writing my own, to do
same, but haven't bothered to do so...

w95powertoy.exe has a clock.exe, but I don't know if it's the one you
want. (Note: the .exe file unloads 30-40 files, best to run in its own
folder. Also includes the sendto utility.)

Two things - there is the small digital indication in the task bar;
r-click in the taskbar, Properties and check 'Show clock'

Or there is the old Powertoy Round Clock (analog or digital) which will
also show seconds; see

Despite the disclaimer, that one will run on XP
