I was thinking is it possible to take the time of a server.
From Google.com for example.
Or no?
Also do i need permission to access that kind of data?
P.s
I do not have a VS to work with here, so any links will help.

You should look into SNTP, which is the protocol designed for client applications or devices to synchronise themselves with time servers. I'm sure that you could create your own SNTP client very easily using a TcpClient or Socket.
This might be a crazy idea but here is goes.
1) Go to Google.com and type "Local Time"
2) Get that url and open the page sources code via VB.net project.
3) Find the String were the local time is being displayed.
4) Read that string and display it as label or Message box?
Any ideas?
Or maybe Google\Bing\Yahoo has some API that can display time?
You've given no indication whatsoever that you've even seen my post. If you don't want to use my suggestion for whatever reason that's fine, but don't you think that an acknowledgement at the very least would be courteous?
Thank you for the reply jmcilhinney.
I will look into SNTP or maybe a AIP.
I will post anything good that works.
