I'm running wp on lamp install in virtual machine. I frequently pause it, save snapshots, etc. Date and time aren't correct because of this and i think i noticed weird behavior of plugins that use cron. How do i fix my time and plugins? Maybe i should get time from external location so it would be correct even though i regularly pause my machine?

A: 

In my experience, running WindowsXP via VMware on OS X, Windows updates the system time a minute or two after I start the VM after a pause. If that happens, you should be able to manually trigger Wordpress cron and as a result WP and plugins should update. Wordpress docs for wp_cron
