Daylight saving time wrong on my computer

I noticed when I logged onto my computer this morning the time on the lower right hand corner was off by an hour. I tried resynching the time with the server but it was still off. Is the server for world wide use and because Congress changed the law last year, our daylight saving time is off by a week?

check all your settings, check your timezone, and check the checkbox for automatically applying daylights savings

Your computer should not be wrong but anything not syncing that was programmed before the change would be wrong.

The last time DST was changed in the USA was 2007.

If you are using Windows XP you probably need this patch.

+1, but honestly should have been included in some kind of an update.


Have you done any software updating lately?
