Setup a windows 98 system using LM for authentication, look at your watch,
log on, look at your watch, then examine the various event logs for
unfamiliar looking entries.

Another really effective way to find these systems would be to just make the
change after a warning and waiting some reasonable amount of time, and be
prepared to upgrade any systems found to be no longer functional.
