Windows Date & time Keeps changing Automaticaly

[Guest]

It also might be a coincidence, if your computer will not
hold Time & Date from the BIOS, then you might have a
CMOS Battery problem. Look on motherboard, it should be a
round coin like battery, usually a CR2032.

Hi My Fatheris running XP Home Edition and just recently

he noticed that the clock for windows kept reseting to:
00:00.00 Feb 7 2036 while he was using the computer.

I scanned the computer using TrendMicro's House call and removed 2 viruses:
1: troj istabar.A
2: troj istabr.F

I also installed all windows updates and updated his

Notron Antivirus / internet Security.

No, he said the problem occurs "while he was using the computer."

Problems with the clock that occur while the computer is power
off (from one boot to the next) are almost always the battery.
Problems that occur while the computer is running can *never* be
the battery, since the battery isn't even used while the computer
is ruinning.
