/**
 * This is where most of the real work of the class is done.
 * NewTime() takes an argument of type FILETIME and then makes the
 * appropriate API calls to turn this into a useful set of data.
 * This data is then stored in the object's member variables. A
 * FILETIME object is returned from various file access functions,
 * but the data it contains is not generally useful, and must be
 * converted.
