In that case, to fix this, you can probably run system-config-time
and, under the NTP tab, and Advanced Options, turn off the option
labeled "Synchronize clock when system starts."

To make sure that the clock is relatively in sync for the future
without having to take a long time for the skew to be resolved, you
can do this:

su -                                # provide root password
service ntpd stop
ntpdate 0.fedora.pool.ntp.org       # or your server of choice
service ntpd start
exit
