    Found this explanation about clock synch on google:

    http://foldingforum.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=2139

    I run 2 SMP clients in terminals on another desktop, the time on the terminal seems to be 1 hour slower?

    I'm sure i's something simple but I'm off to work now so haven't go time to look into it.

    The time logged by the Folding@home client is *always* in UTC. Thus if you are in the UK and therefore in BST, the logged time will always be behind by 1 hour.

    In FahMon's preferences dialog, you need to make sure that the timezone is set correctly as an offset from UTC. Unfortunately there is a bug in the underlying library code that means automatic timezone detection isn't reliable and tends to break very badly.

    Assuming your clocks are then reasonably in sync the *Hung* status will disappear.
