lol 
So I went ahead and set my clock 3 hours behind, to the time my computer keeps switching too and the bitcoin program shows that it is synced. I wonder if it will work? It says I've currently have processed 279535 blocks (at 10:42am) I guess it is synced then?
Seems synced, if it's synced you will also see a green V in the right bottom corner 
Something I just remembered, over the past 6 months my computer clock has been syncing with another time zone 3 hours either behind or ahead (cant remember) the one I live in. I switched the setting to manual because it was automatically switching 3 hours behind every week or two. Maybe this could be related?
You don't say. Bitcoin uses universal time for timestamps, not local time, for obvious reasons. If your computer clock is set to local time instead of universal time, Bitcoin requires that your time zone be correctly set in order to convert to universal time. Your time zone is obviously out by 3 hours, which is also why automatically synchronising your clock cause it become incorrect (in fact, your clock was already incorrect for the time zone it's set to, and synchronising it makes it correct, but for the wrong time zone). Set your time zone correctly, then adjust the clock as necessary, and both problems will go away.

Hey guys,
I downloaded the bitcoin program about a week ago and it synced up to 3 hrs in a couple days. In the past 4 days its been switching between 2 and 3 hours, back and forth and won't proceed any further than that. I checked the firewall and that is good. I tried re installing and it is still stuck at 3 hrs. I have 8 active connections. I looked into the router but don't know how to determine if that is blocking anything.
Does anyone have an idea of what I can do to finish syncing?
Thanks,
Levi

Which wallet and from what source did you download it from?
Are your computer's clock and time zone correctly set?
