Replies shadowpool Posted at 10:54 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 There's a foolproof method! Just turn your computer's clock back. See if that works. If not, the program is checking the time from the internet. If that's the case, just go to your firewall and block all ports except for 80. If that doesn't work, the program is using the http port to download the time. You can get around that by blocking all ports including 80, but leave a random one open like 756. Then use a proxy over port 756.  If you can't block ports using your software firewall, use your router and forward the ports you want to block to an IP that doesn't exist.
