Then make sure your Time zone and system date and time.
Only that is the reason will help you.

Hi spanishpete,

The clock problem is not with your computer, but with your settings in your expat.com profile.

Click on your profile avatar in the menu bar at the top of the page, then select "Edit" from the drop-down menu. In the next window scroll down to "Introduction" and click on the "Edit" button beside it.  You'll see another menu bar beside your photo, the last icon on the right (looks like a rolodex card) is the "My account" button. In the "My account" window, under your name you'll see 4 items, the last is Timezone. You need to make sure that information is correct, it should read " (GMT -3:00) Brazil, Buenos Aires, Georgetown". I'm sure that's where your problem is.

Cheers,
James

I have adjusted the settings as I am in Alaska currently and it shows the wrong time here as it is 11:45 here yet the clock shows 17:45 yet it should say 16:45 for I am at  5 hour differances not 6. Just chiming in and Happy Holidays for it is minus 9c. Hope that cools a few folks off!/ lol
