On the taskbar, or on your AOL browser?

Taskbar is normally at the very bottom of the screen, and will have the "Start" button on it, along with icons for the applications you are using.

AOL provides a sanitised proprietery interface to the web. They are a content provider in addition to being an ISP.
They are also technically inept, over charging and witless.

You wouldn't get anything else with an isp, in fact you'd get less, but it would cost less and probably be a better service.

I have the same problem, so what i do is write the date on the screen with a felt tip pen, and then i know the date. Downside is I have to do it every day, works for me
(you might need to get some terps to clean the screen though)
:thumbsup:

Thanks for the advice, all i have to do now is google to fiind out what Sanitised Propietery Interface means, but i'll take your word for it.

Thanks agian.

Back to your original question, I don't think there is a Windows option to show the date as well as the time.

You can find and download 'freeware' utility programs that will allow you to do it though.

The only way I know of to continually display the date under the clock in the notification area - without adding any third party software is :

right click system tray > deselect 'lock the taskbar'
place mouse at top of system tray and drag system tray higher until the day & date is shown under the clock.

Hope this helps
