I manually set the time and forgot about it. Yesterday I realized that my email message times were off by one hour. I looked at one of my sent emails and it had "Date: Fri, 21 Mar 2008 14:39:48 -0600". I googled and figured out that since I'm in CDT this should be -0500. As a matter of fact emails sent to me from those I work with did in fact have this in the message header: "Fri, 21 Mar 2008 14:34:36 -0500 (CDT)". I couldn't figure out why my machine wasn't updated for the new daylight savings time begin date. I have all the latest Windows XP updates.<br /><br />I talked to our system admin at <a href="http://www.ociweb.com/">OCI</a> and he said I needed to apply this update:<a href="http://http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928388">928388</a>. I downloaded it, but it said that it was already applied. After digging around some more I found the following <a href="http://support.microsoft.com/kb/914387">"How to configure daylight saving time for Microsoft Windows operating systems"</a>. I followed the steps which require you to create and apply a registry file and create and run a vbs script. That fixed the problem.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9016105-8652748479848557073?l=heifner.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Kevin Heifnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08934215964720154954noreply@blogger.com0
