My company is attempting to get our customer base of XP computers up to date
with the new DST standard. I now see that MS has a new patch out for it
though. We were using 928388 and MS states that the new 931836 covers 6
more time zones, but doesn't say which ones (at least that I can find).

So does anyone know if the change in the new patch is just for these 6 time
zones and what those 6 are?

from the article:

Updates from the previous cumulative Windows time zone update
The following changes have been made since the previous cumulative Windows
time zone update.
This was cumulative update 928388, and it was for Windows XP and Windows
Server 2003:

.. Central Brazilian Standard Time and E. South America Standard Time
Legal confirmation of 2007 DST laws was not received in time to include in
prior cumulative time zone update. This update also sets the correct time to
00:00:00 for both time zones.

.. Iran Standard Time
Legal confirmation that DST is no longer used was not received in time to
include in prior cumulative time zone update.

.. Namibia
Correct DST start and end dates from prior cumulative time zone update.

.. Newfoundland Standard Time
Adoption of the U.S. and Canada 2007 DST rules were signed into law after
the prior cumulative time zone update was created.

.. W. Australia Standard Time
DST trial period was signed into law after the prior cumulative time zone
update was created.
