If Anzio is on the client PC, you could make your host-based system query 
Anzio for its (the PC's) time, compare it to the host's time, and alert 
the user if they were way different. It would be the user's responsibility 
to reset their clock. Then they could rely on the Windows time display.

I suppose we could add an option to Anzio to display the host's time 
continuously; the host could periodically issue its time, causing Anzio to 
store a delta value.
