NTP Client
Overview
NTP Client is a software program developed by Thomson Reuters. The most common release is 1.0.0, with over 98% of all installations currently using this version. Upon being installed, the software adds a Windows Service which is designed to run continuously in the background.

Delaying the start of this service is possible through the service manager. The setup package generally installs about 3 files and is usually about 1.01 MB (1,059,840 bytes). Relative to the overall usage of those who have this installed, most are running it on Windows 7 (SP1). Most users that have installed this software come from the United States.
