Vista Style Analog Desktop Clock for Windows XP
One of the features that regular users seem to love in Windows Vista is the sidebar’s analog clock. Every time I glance at somebody’s desktop in a coffee shop they are using one. Windows XP users are not left out in the cold with the ClocX desktop clock that works similarly.
The clock really looks slick, especially if you choose a nice looking theme:
If you right-click on the clock you can change some of the common options, and also get to the options panel.
The options panel has loads of different options you can choose from… note that you can use the Pin to Desktop option in here and remove Always on top if you want the clock below all the other windows.
On the Appearance tab you can change the theme to any one of the preloaded themes.
From the clock’s right-click menu you can also access the Alarms feature, which is surprisingly full-featured.
Clicking on the New button brings you to the Alarm editor, where you can use the standard options for time, date and recurrence, but you can even set it to launch an application, sound or even a video.
I’m not a big fan of these types of clocks, but it seems like everybody I know loves them, so here you are!

Thanks indeed nice
I’ve seen many people just assume UAC is nothing more then annoying prompts (Even an Apple advertisement did so and they should know better) and a roadblock to them doing things.
I’m going to explain in this post why it is more then that.

i tried to add the analog clock to my XP taskbar as you explained but when i right-click on the clock all i get is the taskbar options screen, not the one pictured in your graphics above. is it me or what?…thanks
It looks great on my desktop, Thanks!
It realy is great tool!!
I searched for such think since some time and now I found it! The alarm feature is realy helpfull for me!!
Probaby a quick and easy add-on would be a stop watch and also atimer/countdown just to be able to start it when you say you will call the colleague X in 5 min .. or what ever .. in case you do not want to forget something.
Again .. it is a great tool and I thank you for it!!
A superb tool. Thank You very much. I agree with Mihail though. I think it would benefit from a stopwatch/countdown timer plug in. However, even without this, it is still probably the best clock utility I have seen.
This application crashed my windows xp display driver FAR too often with unexplained reboots. It may be eye candy but in good conscience, I cannot recommend it. AT ALL.
waho this is so nice
its very good looking for windows xp
it is so beautiful………………………………
