Giveaway of the Day - Atomic Alarm Clock 5.81

Alert yourself about important events with different alarms and replace your Windows tray clock using different skins. Computer Alarm clock that will play any MP3 file. It can also run a program, log off, wake up, reboot, shut down, turn off etc…

Atomic Alarm Clock is also an atomic-time synchrosnizer and advanced replacement for Windows tray clock. See the time, seconds, day, date, countdowns, percent of memory in use and system UpTime in different skins. Displays the time for any of the time zones. Over 130 skins are included in the distribution.

It is supported by Longhorn clock style.

I just installed it, and it's pretty easy to use.

Must download and activate today (9/23)!



Uh, you might want to correct the date in your header to 9/23.


Thanks.OP
What a good tool.
In fact, it had 2 more time zone to add and good for look up other location time


NOTE: you must install it today and activate it today (using activate.exe).

Personally, I prefer to use a program that doesn't "phone home".


I have used this shareware since its early days and have not had problems. Sweet and simple. I don't know if it really "phones home" (I never analyzed its outbound traffic); but the atomic clock synchronization is a nice feature for many (and you can change the atomic clock server).


Is this a big memory hog?


If you don't need all of the window dressing, you can set your OS to sync with any time server like time.windows.com

The problem with programs like this...there is no reinstall option...after today.

I have been using this program for sometime now, the program itself does not 'phone home' - however, all programs installed via Giveaway of the Day, do 'phone home' on the day the software is installed - and this is how they manage that the program can only be installed on a specific day only.

Atomic Alarm clock is not a memory hog.


Thanks OP....

In some other thread related to Giveaway of the day, it was mentioned that while the program is installed, if you browse thru the Local/temp file system, you will find a file (does not have .exe in name however), that can be saved and renamed to save the program for later installation. Best way to find this is clean up the temp file structure and start install. Remember, once you finish install, all the related files will be deleted.


Thanks OP, in for 2


So how is this thing better than the existing windows clock in the system tray?


Considering how important the PC is I'm surprised that a better solution hasn't been found to keep the time accurate. I remember a program years ago (Windows 9x era) that would calculate how much time you lose or gain and it would automatically adjust your clock so it stays synchronized without having to constantly connect to an atomic clock. I could sure use something like that now.


How is this thing supposed to work? I installed, ran the program, and nothing happens. I'm on vista.

worked fine for me..thanks.


In for one!! I had this program and love it. I had two other programs (Daily Alarm Clock and Alarm Clock) which are crap in compared to the simplicity and features in this program. The only reason i need to re-install this program is because my HP took a dive on me. Thanks!!! Great program.

Also, I believe that the key may be in the registry (if you know where to look...update coming) or in the about section. Google atomic alarm clock to download the trial software, then activate using the key from the current/previous install. Foresight needed


There is nothing in the ABOUT section.


This is a quick and easy dl. Its also a slick program and very useful if you want alarm clocks, multiple on the desktop countdown alarms, a desktop calendar, etc and many options. thanks op.


Man, just 1.67MB for $30...


There seems to be virus with the program. Watch out. I downloaded the program and when I tried to install it, my CA etrust alarted me of virus and deleted the file.

Another program offer to give you what you already have.


I use TClockEx, but I'll give this a try.


I use Chameleon Clock (I LOVE it!)


Looks like fluff, because there is no tooltip that shows additional information when we hoover over it.


thanksssssssssssssss


Thanks OP


i downloaded this and now i got this big ass clock on my toolbar, the next download of the day should be AOL followed by weatherbug then maybe bonzai buddy


Anyone noticed that this thing can not get time information from any time server listed? So it only display the local time.


How is this thing an ATOMIC clock if it's just a software program you download and install? It runs off your system clock the same as the windows clock that everyone already has.


I have been using Banshee Screamer for a few years now, it's always been free and it works great! It lets you use it's built in sounds, you can specify an individual MP3, or choose a multiple MP3's and it will choose a random one for you. You can also set unlimited alarms throughout the day as well. Banshee Screamer Homepage


i feel so .... scientific


thank you!


It does not work at all. Just tried mine out.
