Before I would go this route you have serveral other options.
1) Changing the time can be control on a windows PC so the user can't change it - plus in the log in script you can set the time on the PC to a servers time.
2) Get the time directly from the server using the windows API of NetRemoteTOD
3) Look for webservices that you could query the time
http://developer.yahoo.com/util/timeservice/V1/getTime.html is an example.
