  Whenever I use Kurzweil-1000 to scann printed material, my computer's
clock loses about ten seconds per scanned page.  But it regains this lost
time on my next boot up.   This is not a correction coming from elsewhere;
somehow my PC (running Windows 98) must have known the "right time all along
but, for the remainder of any session during which I scan, it oddly displays
a slower time.  (The "right" time to which it's currently returning is, in
fact, about a minute fast. because the PC's clock runs fast and I don't
correct it till it gets to be three minutes fast.)

  I wonder if anyone can offer an explanation for this strange phenomenon.
