Apparently my Vista x64 attempted to change to DST time zone but didn't work. I keep getting a pop-up that says "You seem to have outdated time zone information. Please run Windows Update." Windows update did nothing for me. The Time Zone button in the "Date and Time" dialog box doesn't work. I have tried turning off UAC and Defender. HELP!

I have XP/SP2, with all current updates. I even manually applied the DST patch from Microsoft (it said I didn't need it). But my system is STILL running one hour behind today.

Not everyone who simply trusts MS is "done"...

What changes would I have to make since I live in Arizona where we don't observe DST?

You might want to recommend that users check MICROSOFT UPDATE rather than WINDOWS UPDATE so that they can receive all of the Microsoft patches for all of their software. Usually, folks forget about the other Microsoft products on their machines (such as WORD or OFFICE) and miss critical patches for that software.

Here's the stuff for Windows 2000; if you like to know what's happening behind the scenes, they have all the registry entries and VBS you'll need to "manually automate" the update. Also works on XP (confirmed).

I plan to run one or both of two venerable programs on my legacy Windows systems to reset their system clocks for daylight saving time. The programs are D4 and About time. These programs also set the DST flag. I also intend to turn off the automatic update DST flag on these systems as well.

It would behoove anyone using Outlook, Exchange and/or Exchange Server and several calandering applications to visit the Microsoft DST help and support site--a link immediately follows Leo's article.

I found this link to a Microsoft utility to allow manully updates to DST settings.
http://download.microsoft.com/download/5/8/a/58a208b7-7dc7-4bc7-8357-28e29cdac52f/tzedit.exe

Running this program opens a utility that allows you to set the start and end dates for your time zone.
