This was a problem. Fixed now.
But still, why does ntpd have four processes (now three)? It is eating
memory (38.9% of 12MB = +/- 4.7 MB).

NT is the OS of the future. The main engine is the 16-bit Subsystem
(also called MS-DOS Subsystem). Above that, there is the windoze 95/98
16-bit Subsystem. Anyone can see that 16+16=32, so windoze NT is a
*real* 32-bit system.
