VBS script help

[Guest UnknownTBeast]

Is there a script that I could use to find the system time and reduce it by

16 minutes and display it in a MSGBOX as "The current time is..."

I don't have the rights to change the time on the computer so this seems

like the best way.

For windows scripts,go to TechNet at microsoft,locate the script center,

locate the library,a script might already be made.

Performing this task with a script won't get you around the permissions

issue. Ask your system administrator to give you sufficient rights to change

the time.
