You don't need a utility, just a registry hack (google for "RealTimeIsUniversal"). It has a few issues, mainly that in XP time is wrong after suspend/hibernate. It's better in more recent Windows but still not perfect (system may become unresponsive if you're using Windows during the DST switchover). On the other hand, setting the hardware clock to UTC is technically the right thing to do, so if you only use Windows lightly, it's probably best to force it to do the right thing (so Linux can do the same) and accept that it will probably take Microsoft another 10 years to make it work properly. The link below details the problems associated with running the hardware clock on local time.
