The full article contains the actual fix. It's a small .exe file that you download and run to change the start and end dates of DST on your machine.

This article directs you to a MS download that doesn't cost $4000. It's free.

But you won't find any reference to it on any MS support page. Of course.

At a price of $4,000.00, wouldn’t it just be easier to manually change the time on each machine? I know that it’s nice to have it done automatically, but isn’t the manual option still there?

I stopped by the office on the way to church and noticed that our Linux/Unix systems had all moved up but none of the Windoze computers had ... how has it come to pass that this generally imcompetant operating system controls the world?

If we got rid of DST you wouldn’t have a problem.

They didn’t have daylight savings time last year or the year before?

[Boundless]

I ran into this last year, too, and downloaded
and configured tzedit then.

It’s still set to CST, start time 2:00AM 2nd Sunday Mar.

It didn’t work last night.

It’s just a reg hack. You can write a .reg yourself and share with friends. We did it in a timezone where MS set the timezone dates to the US dates, not local!

I have a better fix. Repeal DST.

I run all Macs at home, and they updated automatically with no problem. I have Panther and Tiger on the machines. Apparently the fix was included in the automatic updates for older systems.

They run Windows at my college, so I don't know what I'll find on Monday. On PCs, I've generally found the clocks to be about as accurate as the ones they used to put in 1960s cars.
