I think this is the same thing as the clock "smash" in GPL. It's kinda hard to explain. Mainly, your pc smashes the "delay" between your pc and the other pc, so that everybody is synchronized. But I'm sure someone will provide you with a better explanation. Philster

When racing online, I sometimes get the message "Clock zapped" in red letters. What does this mean? (I have a fast cable connection, and bandwith is usually not a problem unless the host has over-committed himself by allowing too many drivers at once.) -- http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Hills/9740
