Is it necessary to edit the registry? Why can't this be done by double
clicking the time (lower right hand corner) and simply changing the internet
time server?

It can be. Registry does not need to be edited. I wonder why MS hasn't
fixed its time server. They surely must know there are problems with
it.

Try disabling your firewall. Then synchronize the clock, then restart your
firewall. Worked for me.
All times are: Eastern Time (US & Canada) (change) Goto page Previous1, 2, 3
